I built a pretty decent computer to use ONLY with my TV... (it doesn't have a monitor, only the TV)... (in fact here are the specs in case anybody is interested):
[Windows 98]
Athlon 750mhz
256mb PC133 (Mushkin ram)
Radeon 7000 AGP 64mb
SB 512 PCI
Linksys 10/100 NIC
2x Playstation2 Pad's (using DirectPad Pro drivers)
Ok so here is my question....
I don't want to have to built a wireless keyboard but if thats what I need to do then fine... but I'm trying to turn the computer into a psuedo-console and control everything via my joysticks...
Has anybody ever done anything like this before? If so, what did you use?
Thanks in advance.

I don't think its possible to contol a computer to it full capacity without a keyboard yet. But you don't need a keyboard to boot the computer, just turn off the keyboard in the bios.
Those who hope in the lord will renew their strength, they will soar on wings like eagles.
