Yep. I freaked out when I got it though. Pluged it in and it would not pick up a signal. tried different vga and dvi cables reboots and thought it was a bum LCD. Just when i was about to give up I tried using the power cord that came with it and then it worked. Seems it did not like my old one.

Then a few issues with BF2142 not loading but finally everyting is working great.

The best money I spent on my PC this year IMO. Glad you like yours also..

Not sure if any of you knew this, but I wasn't gaming for awhile because my car died. Since I only had about $500 for a down payment I had to part out my nice gaming rig to help fund the cost of a new car.

Anyhoo, since then I started using my Dell with an ATI x300. Yeah, that wasn't going to cut it. I'm not sure that card can run Tetris above 800x600.

So I got me an ATI X1950 GT, and a Samsung DVD burner with lightscribe.

Next paycheck I am sending Havox $70 for his SB Fatality sound card.

Next up is an HP rocket raid card, along with a TT eSATA HDD enclosure to put my 320 giger into.

I am going to try and get at least a year out of this setup.

Oh yeah, forgot to add the 2 gigs of ram I added to the 2 I already had.

I'm still trying it out, but i'm not happy with it so far.

I can get the macros to work in wordpad, excel etc. Not in BF2142 which is what i bought the thing for.

I've heard of some problems with that keyboard. Hopefully you get your problems resolved.

Affter talking with Razer tech support I flashed the firmware on the KB and updated the drivers. Still no luck in the game but it still works in notepad, etc.

Maybe i should return it and get the G15 (is the G15 really that big?)

the g15 is a really big keyboard, but i really like it
