nah, I need one already after I did that Nibbler run months ago.
I just got this keyboard last summer yet it's already wearing out on the main keys I use for games...although still reliable enough to keep using.
If I can stop myself from bashing it as I have done previously(hehe) I think it will last me at least another 6 months.
This is 1 sturdy keyboard...I'll say that!
I likely will be at #marp soon...but even then likely wouldn't be hanging out there very often. I would have to leave it to play any games cuz no way I want IRC doing crap in the background as I'm trying to play.
Someone would go and send me a file like a screenshot or something so in the middle of play I would hear an alert and likely get a window from the client popup right on top of my gameplay. I have gotten this when I have accidentally left AIM or ICQ open when playing in MacMAME.
Plus for many games I need all the CPU for MacMAME I can get.
