So I've been lurking here for a bit, and I started posting recently. I suppose I should do the perfunctory introduction.
I'm BlueNalgene. I am a person who enjoys the tasty sensations of the typidytypes. I am currently a PhD student.
I have 3 keyboards. A Rosewill cheapo-deluxe with cherry reds (graduate student = poor and irish) , a Dell AT101W which I have freshly vinyl wrapped, and an unfinished Commodore Vic-20 mod. The 'nicer' Rosewill is my home and gaming rig, the AT101W is my work rig, and my Vic-20 is a lab benchtop ornament currently. I really wish I would have stored it better. I had a small nitric acid/cockroach related explosion in the lab, and there is some noticeable superficial damage on the unit. But, it's not like it was working yet anyway.

Nitric acid and cockroach related explosion...
If I could tag individual users, I'd tag you as Dr. Cockroach. :))
Welcome to the community and I'm glad you came out of lurking. GH is definitely a better experience when you're involved and get to know people. :thumb:

Maybe when I get a break, I will spin the yarn that is The Saga of the Vic-20.

Or even create your own thread over in making stuff together (http://geekhack.org/index.php?board=117.0).

Why that is a lovely idea. I was kicking myself for not asking if /keyboards/ was the correct place for it. Learning is fun.

A lot of people have put their build logs into "making stuff" - quite a repository of tips and tricks in there!
