Here's an initial pic. Sorry it may seem a bit dark, but that's life.

Will post better pics later, cause I just got a new case for my PC.

I think most people in this thread require curtains, paint, and a desk as their next upgrade. :lol:

Beautiful keyboard. Types almost perfectly, and even is a USB hub.

Wow! It types for you, that's amazing! :P

How are the laptop style keys for gaming? I wanna buy a new keybaord, but I'm worried i might damage the keys on something like that from excessive pressure.

@Solo: Dude! Man! Dude man! - i think that about sums it up.

I was thinking the same thing, but he is probably a hardcore gamer. They dont favour wireless keyboards for games (I think)

This is going slightly off topic, but

I'm not a hardcore gamer, but I play enough. And I've seen a few guys complain that their keyboards aren't responsive enough because the battery is going flat...during a gaming session! That has put me off wireless keyboards. Wireless mice on the other hand...
