I cant believe Ive been missing out!

Well, I just acquired Freespace 2 and all I have to say is that I feel like an anal crinkle for not getting the game when it first came out. This think ROCKS! It will take a bit to get used to the controls and stuff, but it will be worth it.

Does anyone recommend going to a joystick or using the keyboard and mouse?

I prefer to use a joystick. I find that having the twist rudder as part of the stick is a definate help. Makes it much quicker to perform maneuvers.

Well, there you go. You'll have to make up your own mind. No-one here can tell you yes or no without an augument. That always seems to be the way here

Twist rudders are cool if they're not absurdly sensitive, so you start doing half a barrel roll when you're just trying to jink to the left.

I have a Precision Pro, IMO that twist is pretty good. Best twist was on my old Sidewinder 3D Pro, but that might be nostalgia

At home I've got a Wingman Digital Extreme which has a very 'twitchy' twist-action but if you take a flathead screwdriver and rotate a screw 90 degrees (the screw's in the base of the stick) it disables the twist action physically, so you can have the best of both. Pretty slick, IMO.
