A [hid] port to Windows is underway.  I could whip out a [directinput]  
object if I had a day behind a windows machine (I currently don't have  
one but will have regular access to one soon).  A [hid] object is going  
to be more complicated because of Microsoft's characteristic arbitrary  
limitations.

As for pdp and pidip, I think it would take a couple days to port it to  
Windows using MinGW.  That's just a guess.  I'm not going to do it  
myself anytime soon, but I can give assistance.  And lots of people  
would be happy to have it working on Windows.
