Default are you testing boxing/ doing on the cheap?
Those G11 keyboards look nice but if you don't want to shell out a lot of $$$ or are boxing on a laptop. Grab a USB numpad. You can have buttons for marcos under your left hand and still be able to move with your right!

True, but the numpad is the same as your keyboard numpad, so nothing is really gained, other than the key placements on your left

not on a laptop numpads are usually all screwy... not as easy to type with and not everyone won the lottery like you Tim. ;-)



Edit to be nicer.... We love you Tim.

I got a USB numpad sat next to my mouse, just makes it slightly quicker and you can use your thumb sometimes so you dont even need to leave the mouse to press buttons - best $7 i've spent =)

So yeah, I'm currently dualboxing pairs of priests and druids (alternately), running pwnbox on a laptop my boss gave me a few years ago for being such a stellar employee. Its an HP with 1.6 AMD Turion (Dual core), 1g RAM and on-board graphics with XP pro. I'm getting 30-60fps pretty much anywhere, even dungeons and stuff, save for SW or Dal (more like 4 sec per frame in Dal, lol)

I have it hanging 1/3 over the left edge of the dumpster dived coffee table with a little Blizzard (serious) fan pointing up at the heatsink portion to keep it from shutting off due to overheat. (Was using icepacks but those always give out at the most inappropriate moment)

Laptop - Free
Logitech wireless opt mouse with sexy candy apple red two tone finish- $14.99 sale @ Radiohack
"blizzard" brand 10" 2 spd fan w/tilt - $12.99 sale @ Office Despot

total investment - minus Blizzard's DoT to bank acct ~ $30 w/tax
