Great (if it's the same one! :-D). I suppose you can't really do much more with it but it puts fun into typing... or something like that :-).
The only thing is though that as I said the keyboard is big. When you come to type on other keyboards you might find it hard to touch-type as all the keys are squashed up / shortened on some :-). Also you might need to re-enforce your desk as they weight a tonne! --------------------------------------- Chris Adams Fragzzhost T (07005) 964 855 F (07005) 964 857 www.fragzzhost.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin T.
