Feels sanitary man.
So did you just clean it, or is there more to the story? Either way it looks great.
I'm all inspired to clean my keyboard, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a totally new species of bacteria under the keys...

Pandemics have to start somewhere tbh

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me

Yeah, I oiled the springs and switches in it and removed half a kilogram of sawdust.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Naw... I wish that kit came with a 4 and 4-1/2 inch saw... wanted one of those for awhile, but 50 bucks for a blade is crazy, maybe a unibit, but one saw makes me cringe... This set was on sale for 66% off so I just got it... time to drill holes in my desk, mount the power bar to the bottom along with the router and whatever else I can, then holes in desk for running cables and cleaning it up.

Later comes a shelf on the wall for the tower and bullnose for the desk itself.

Fuck... I still need a pic for that wall, I want a panoramic forest or beach view that takes up the whole width of the desk.

Notice which keys get mashed the most?

hehe. My WSAD seem to suffer most too. You don't need a picture on the wall. Go for 3 large monitors with pretty wallpapers instead

see theres a problem there... I would need 3 new monitors... that ones only 1680x1050 and I would want 3 1920x1080, so three new monitors sucks. I may be able to get a 17" for free as a secondary monitor though.

Apparently anyone who doesn't have a clinky clacky mechanical keyboard is a faggot. Just because we like backlighting and media keys and macro buttons and usb/headset inputs apparently makes us faggots.

I thought it was the opaque vibrator lit by rainbow LEDs with a bluetooth connection so you can calibrate it's settings using your keyboard that made you all faggots.

Apparently.

You need to look at your keyboard when you type? Do ho ho. I just have to feel it.

Well, no, I can touchtype, but it's a nice addition to have if you're typing in the dark. Looks nice and gives some ambient lighting.

What do you do for windows buttons?

Didn't you say you always used your computer out in the sun? Either way, your screen should really rake care of the ambient lighting for you.

Oh, and I have LEDs in my G11. I always have them off.

Also, CTRL+Esc.
