But it's nothing special, those things were built like absolute tanks. You could kill someone with an early model M and then go right back to typing.
Mind posting a picture of it as well? I'm kinda curious as to how it looks and what you've done to save it.
But seriously, who the fuck would not only smoke around their computer but put out the cigarette on their keyboard?
Thanks. I'm hosestly amazed that the case isn't cracked at all from being shipped like that.
It does have a few battle scars but everything still works great and the keys are still very clicky
How do you deal with the multiple keystroke issues? If I remember correctly, it's only able to have a few simultaneous keystrokes before it doesn't recognize it.
You mean the lack of n-key rollover? To be honest, that's never been an issue for me and I do a fair bit of gaming.
Oh good. I remembered having that issue in the 90s when using these keyboards.
I ran into it using a PS2-USB adapter with mine. I can't remember which game but I want to say some kind of FPS where I was hitting a lot, and even then it wasn't terrible but enough to notice. For day to day typing I never had an issue.
