^ hey dudes, I was jk. 
Click "All My Pics" below.
Click "All My Pics" below. I knew that was Vancouver the sec I saw the buildings. It was one of the first very distinguishable characteristics when we got out of the airport and toward the city. Not the best looking imo - it just looks so old-school. Why haven't they renovated?

Yah we did see some new construction going on, but it looked like a lot of the existing ones were centuries old... kinda clumped together too like some 3rd-world asian country. It's just the look that was unfavorable if you ask me.Originally posted by: KeithTalent

Looking at the picture is interesting.. Almost looks like CG, a few things in the picture look strange due to the lighting in the picture.

Well that's interesting. Where were you exactly? In the area I live in, there are only a few older buildings, most of it is new construction. I find this city to be extremely clean as well, compared to many of the cities I have visited around the world and in particular in North America.
Granted, there are crappy areas, but that is true for any city of certain size.

LOL no one noticed the certain items I placed in my picture... to fit a theme of the thread... haha

That is an IBM-M class keyboard, nobody has ever made a keyboard that would be considered an upgrade from it.
Das Keyboard 2 may potentially be considered an upgrade.
It's got very similar key mechanisms. The "feel" is the same. This is the most important thing about a keyboard.
1.) It is USB, since PS2 connectors seem to be hard to find on new mobo's these days ... this is probably the biggest selling point.
2.) You don't have to remove the key caps to have a "blank" keyboard.
3.) it's black, more stylish than the "dirty beige" of the Model M.
Of course if you like not having blank keys, or if you don't care to change to the usb interface, and/or if you don't care about the color .... the Model M remains without a proper successor.
It's kind of a mess, but here it is...
My desk.
The wife's desk with mine to the side.
We live in a capecod style home, so we use the upstairs as our computer area.
Lastly, my shiney new Radeon 2900 Pro.

From a couple months ago.
