Why not? you'd rather I just bloat the forums by making a whole other topic, when there's already a perfectly fine topic to discuss in already?

It has to do with general keyboard design. Mostly lousy keyboards do it... my HP does the same thing, like I mentioned in my post. Aparently it's called the ghosting or blocking effect.

The razer Tarantula is at least 1 keyboard that is virtually immune to such a problem, but I woudlnt' be suprized if there were more keyboard which would accept 4 inputs at a time.

It may have to do with the fact that the data path may only reserve 3 spaces (each space might be 1 byte) for keys to be send every cycle, sending more would jam the data up.

go there and check em out.

I don't live where you live. I checked Best Buy's Canada website and they didn't seem to have it. I have not yet gone to the store yet though, but if it's not online, I highly doubt it's at any store.

You already gained my respect with that right there. Acceptable bump.

Everyone should get a wired keyboard that is as thin as you can find, or at least close to that of laptop keys.

Flat keys = less time to push the button down = able to move faster = better reaction time = better pa = better combing ability = win
