OK you must remember you are talking to a guy that owns one normal NWN. One collectors edition at $50 and two more at $30 for a total of four copies of NWN. Two copies of both the origianl strategy guides for a total of four guides. I currently only own one copy of SOU and only one gudie for it.

With that out of the way.

I am very picky about keyboards but I keep wanting a better version of the MS Sidewinder Strategic Commander. This keyboard says it come with software I am guessing the it might let me program the normal number keys to be like shift-F1. OK I do not get to see all of the keys unless I press the shift key but it would make things easier if I had just a few more hot keys for spells and wands. I really wish they had the whole three rows of keys at the top. F1-F12, Shift F1-F12, Control F1-F12. Then if you print your own stickers that would fix everything.

It kind of sucks to pause an online game with a bunch of people in it. I do not use the Strategic Commander because I would need a hand for the keyboard, a hand fo it and a hand for my mouse.

The reason I posted this here was to get feedback from people here to see what everyone thought of it. Amazon says the base until has shipped so I should be getting it sometime next week so I will post a review of it before I even think about buying the NWN top for it. If the keyboard does not feel right that will end it there for me. If it does suck $32 for a backup keyboard is not that bad. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Chewbacca Just to make sure you are following. You have to buy the base unit for about $32 then buy the NWN top for about $20. If anyone can find better prices let me know. [img]smile.gif[/img]
