Well, I finally got my PowerGlove hooked up to my computer (Atari ST).
My plans are to make a controller in the future.  Currently I have 
just used the BYTE article and have it hooked up in standard "Low Res"
mode.  The glove seems to be very sensitive to the frequency of the 
"RESET" and "CLOCK" (BYTE article terminology).  It seems to work 
very intermittently (or not at all) as I add or delete instructions 
from my program inbetween the reading of data.  I'm not sure exactly
how it should "solid" the glove should work, because I do not have a
Nintendo.  When I am using it there always seems to be at least some 
"noise", i.e. the LED's and the data read from the glove is "mostly"
correct.  Uhhg, anyways, I could use any tips or ideas (schematics).
Thanks to everyone who has already supplied me with info.  Looks like
it is time to track down an O'scope....
