Undoing the work of Priuses: burning gas & rubber
Replacing an aging Apple Keyboard that I have been using on my PC:

Vortex KBT ONE with Brown switches made of PBT:
Was having a tough time between tenkeyless and full, but I'd rather have it when I want it.

Love brown switches. My favorite of the cherrys. I was in the same predicament debating between tenkeyless and not. Ended up with a TKL board, and I find that I like it much more than a full size board. It is nice not having to reach so far for my mouse, and it is very comfortable for gaming. You should try it some time.

So finally there is an update… and of course for a year-old card it's $200 more than the PC-only counter-part… but what can we do :(

Radeon 7950 for the Mac Pro~

Best Buy price matched office depot for $399. Didn't realize the keyboard was going to be free if you buy the tablet with it and neither did the cashier until I walked to my car and was looking at my receipt lol

I might try one still. I saw you (I think) posted a few brands that I did not recognize, yet wanted to try. I still collect a few games, but have grown out of it for the most part, letting life grab me instead of trying to save every virtual world.

Wanted to do the buy 2 get 1 free at Target but they didn't have Monster Hunter for the Wii U. So I ended up just getting it from Best Buy along with the new Justin Timberlake album.

I just decided to picked up the EnduraPro 104. Really missed not using a Trackpoint on my Thinkpad, so this should be good. Too bad they don't have one with a Mac layout because that would have been great (right now I have a SpaceSaver M [M = Mac]). The layout isn't an issue because I can switch the mapping between the Alt and Windows/Command keys (and switch the keycaps), but I lose the ability to change volume, etc. on the keyboard.

But that album is cheaper at Target and you get two extra songs ;)

Yep I did. Mostly topre boards which I would describe as typing on clay tablets. Honestly I don't game at all..just use my tenkeyless at work where my workflow is to keep one hand on the keys, and one hand on my mouse 90% of the time because it is very mouse driven work.

Here is my work set up. It has been a pleasure to use.

I saw them in the summer of 1995 in Auburn hills, Mi. It was a great concert but they didn't play their most popular song "what would you say". I couldn't believe it and my girlfriend and a I left the concert pretty confused as to why they negated playing it. It seemed like the crowd hung around after for awhile expecting them to come back out and play it. Even more amazing is that took place almost 20 years ago, holy crap, I'm getting old!

I've seen them before many years ago, prob. late 90s at MSG. And they just jammed a lot. They would go on for like 20+ mins for one song. :eek:
