Greetings,
First let me give a little history and equipment list. I've had four Logitech non-force feedback wheels from the late 90s to early 2000s (yellow and black). After going through those I stepped up to the red force feedback (not the MOMO). I enjoyed that and could sense the improvement over the older yellow non-force feedback wheels. Any wheel is better than no wheel.
My system is a Dell XPS 400 with 256mb video ram and 4gig of ram. OS is XP. After those other wheels the red and black force feedback finally burned out so I decided to step up to the newest Logitech - the MOMO Force Feedback. This is the one with the red body and real leather wheel and metal paddles with red and metal foot pedals. This machine was heads and shoulders above the rest and one calibration worked for all games.. The games/sims I do are F12k1 & 2k2, GTR2 and WTCC Race '07 (great game!).
Well my Red MOMO finally burned something out and would no longer do any force feedback and the calibration was all over the place. So after doing a little shopping I've decided on this latest MOMO offering from Logitech. Its cheaper both in price and quality than its Red forerunner however not so much so that its a big deal. Also it secures very well to the desk using a three point system. A plastic center screw is easy to see how that works, but the plastic cover with Logitech written on it must come off so one can adjust the the other two attachment points. DO NOT over tighten any of these posts. When they are all snug they work great together - unless of course you're a gorilla - then you'll have trouble. The paddles are plastic instead of metal but work fine. The calibration out of the box was fine for my WTCC Race 07, but on GTR2 it tends to have a mind of its own. In the Logitech settings I enabled the center spring feature which helped a lot but not entirely. It feels when I get to center that the wheel wants to fall to one side or the other (only in GTR2) and will steer the car off the road by itself - very annoying. In the other game it is fine - smooth progressive and fun! The rubber wheel is fine, unless you're spoiled by the great leather wheel - I'm adjusting quickly. For the price - this is the wheel to get. If you have a deep pocket book then I would be inclined to go with the ridiculously priced top of the line Logitech. What irritates, me is that someone at Logitech figured out they were selling the Red MOMO for too little. So they scaled it back a little quality wise, lowered the price, then put all the great stuff on the new G25 and doubled the price - a clear case of greed and profit margin as far as I'm concerned.
I also wanted to mention that the pedals have better feedback (better springs, i.e. resistance) than the pedals on my Red MOMO! - and of importance, there is a button on the bottom that when pushed, out pops a strip of little gripper cleats, so on a carpet it sticks just fine. If I hadn't discovered this, the pedals would slip quite badly - so press that button and the pedals will stay put. :)
Good luck and enjoy!
best, ~R

I thought the wheel is good, I may have to slow of a connection to get it to work right. New at these pc games..... just ok I guess
Rating: - A happy customer!
In only one line ...
"THIS IS A PERFECT WHEEL"
The only "bad" thing, is that it is not very good for RALLY games like CMR! but for F1 driving, which is smooth style and you need precise driving lines , that is the choice!
Thank YOU MOMO ... LOGITECH ... AMAZON.COM !
Have a nice day ;)

Its a nice wheel IMO, however there are a few things that annoyed me about it.
1. Documentation is limited and for the c clamps it doesnt say how to remove the gray cover.. so far I havent figured this out and dont want to try to force it off because its on pretty snugly
2. The center screw/clamp is cheap.
3. It has a built in lap "holder" which can be an issue for people with shorter desks
4. It makes a whining sound when turned quickly.
5. The rubber is sticky and feels nasty. I would have been happier with an all plastic wheel than cheap rubber
6. LED's are a bit bright and kinda blind/annoy you at night
7. Paddle shifters feel awkward, their a bit too far back
8. Shifter(paddle shifters too) makes a loud clicky sound
9. "Sensitivity" doesn't seem to want to work properly with certain games (mainly DiRT and GRiD) its either full gas/brake/left/right or no gas/brake/left/right.(more than likely a game issue not product)
10. A bit too long, a bit longer and it would knock my monitor off.
11. Wires are a bit short
