I am considering a new keyboard and mouse.
I am interested in the following models.
Does anyone have any experience with these two? Opinions or comments?

Microsoft 9VV-00001 Black 7 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Laser Habu Gaming Mouse

Microsoft 9VU-00001 Black 104 Normal Keys USB Wired Ergonomics Reclusa Gaming Keyboard

Regarding the mouse I did some research on it and discovered Razer teamed up with Microsoft to make the mouse so it has some good brains behind it. However all the reviews I read said that setting it up was a hassle. Install drivers off CD, then update firmware, then install new drivers. And one person commented that for £10 more you might as well get the Razer Deathadder.

But the keyboard looks fab mate Smile

I only recomend Logitech. Not that there are no good products from other venders out there. I use a G-15 keyboard, and a 518 mouse.

I'm sure he loved it and probably still uses it so much that he had to take a black marker and re-color the keys. Laughing

I'm finally getting a new mouse and keyboard.
I decided to go with the ones I listed:

Microsoft 9VV-00001 Black 7 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Laser Habu Gaming Mouse

Microsoft 9VU-00001 Black 104 Normal Keys USB Wired Ergonomics Reclusa Gaming Keyboard

I am also upgrading my system ram:

CORSAIR Dominator 4GB(4 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Quad Kit Model QUAD2X4096-8500C5DF

I have 2 Gb and am moving up to the 4 Gb.
Originally I was using XP Pro 32bit, I quickly changed to XP Pro 64bit.
Does anyone know if I need to do anything special to XP Pro 64 bit or is 4 Gb supported as is?

Everything should arrive on November 13th, 2007.
I'm eagerly awaiting. Cool

I finally installed the Reclusa keyboard.
Delay on installation, I had to add more USB ports.
I had the USB ports to add, but finally took the time to install.
I really like it so far, old standard keyboard was worn out.
It will take a me a while to figure out what everthing is.
I love the lighted keyboard, great for night time and looks cool.

I installed the Habu mouse shortly after I got it.
I almost didn't get it, but it is closest to what I am use to as far as dimensions and feel go.
Updating the software and firmware was very easy.
Took me a few days to get it dialed in, but it's feeling good.

The new ram is great, very stable and awsome speed.
I did have to make a few changes to the BIOS to get XP Pro 64 bit to utilize the 4Gb.
I had to read Asus forums to figure that one out.
Turns out I needed to enable "Remap Memory Feature".

Now I think I need to invest in a good pair of Gaming Headset.
My current ones are: Altec Lansing AHS515.
They sound great for just using stereo sound.
I was thinking of the Razer Barracuda HP-1headset and Razer Barricuda AC-1 Sound card.
Does anyone have any experience with using multi-channel headsets?
I'm just wandering if it's worth the expense to change from stereo to multi-channel.
Any opinions on the Razer Barracuda set?
Currently I am using my onboard sound.
Is it better to add a nice sound card or is onbaord fine?
Seems like onboard would be using more resources and add on would be better.
