Help! New user - how can I use zipstick joysticks with the PC?

Hi!
Although a huge Amiga fan I am new to this site.
Does anyone know how you can play multiplayer Amiga games via the pc? I have a number of zipsticks but do not know how (or if) it is possible to connect these to the pc!
I also understand the Competetion Pro joystick has been relaunched with a USB connection - is it possible to connect two of these to a PC?
Any suggestions VERY gratefully received!
Thanks for your time,
John

Thanks very much for this, but what I ideally need is some way to connect at least two joysticks for the multiplayer games - is it possible to do this with the Catweasel PCI card you referred to?
Cheers,
John

Thanks for this - it looks great. Unfortunately it also looks rather expensive at about US$130! I was rather hoping there might be a simple connection lead or something to plug into the back of the pc!
Any suggestions??

Thank you to all who have helped out!
Just for information, the Competition Pro Joystick is available at amazon for about GBP 9. If it's possible to connect two of these I will go and order two now!!
Best regards,
John
