My flight simulator control rig - it has a CH Products yoke, a CH Products throttle quadrant, a trackball, and a small keyboard (all connected to the pc via a Radio Shack 4 port USB hub). I mount the whole thing on my desk using two carpentry clamps - you can set the whole thing up in about 5 minutes.
