On the topic of keyboards...
- One thing I don't like about the keyboard on my laptop, is that it has ghosting with the spacebar and directional keys.
- Which makes that section with the helicopter and the bombs in the third part of the Precipice a bit annoying.

- I still think Master needs one of those snazzy 18" laptops with mechanical keyboards.

Nah, I'd rather a portable laptop and proper gaming rig than some crazy inbetween. No offense to gaming laptops, but they aren't for me.
- I still don't have a gaming desktop.

- Gaming laptops are still way to expensive, honestly.

– I'm begging you. Don't do that without asking someone to see if the hard drive still works.
± Unless you don't want anyone to know what's on it, in which case learn some computer DIY and/or learn to use encryption for future reference.

+ I agree with Plum, that or take the harddrive out first.

At the very least, encrypt the hell out of it and then format it.
- I made a bit of a gaffe in the TTQ.

I never did like Apple's keyboards, I always felt like I was being rough on the keys. I really don't like how the keypad seems to have disappeared from many keyboard either. You just end up with the keypadless keyboard with a huge load of nothing surrounding it on newer laptops:

– What inefficient design!

+ Think I'll replace the OS on this laptop with its 64-bit equivalent this (long!) weekend. (It's second hand, the previous user had put 32-bit Kubuntu on a machine with 8 GB of RAM

)

(Hoozang, if you're reading this, don't say a word! >:( )
