Software gold plating

[Coding Horror: The Ultimate Software Gold Plating](http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001153.html): Jeff wrote in support for an analog rotary controller ... **that did not exist.** Neither Atari nor third party manufacturers produced such a controller in the Jaguar's heyday. Jeff, as I understand it, hacked his own together by wiring an Atari paddle controller into a Jaguar controller.

As someone who likes to take the time to make sure that things are done right where possible as opposed to making them just work, I find this story fascinating.
