It is a matter of Plug in play.

Works perfect on the Mac, Plug it in with the cable, Make a connection, Unplug it and have a wireless controller.

Also have it running on my Android.

Windows FFS :))

FYI Dave Windows recognises PS3 controller when you connect it and assigns a generic driver to it which doesn't work with it. Works with xbox controller I think. There are few drivers there for PS3 controller, but only 1 that is signed and it is a headache. I use unsigned driver by some Japanese bloke. Like it.

Is anyone surprised that a Sony controller doesn't work without aggravation on a M$ OS? Cos I'm not. Funny how the XBox controller works without grief...
