Stefan, the Mega-Microsoftie, ventures out into the MS Hardware world yet again, but this time he found a friend (yeah, I’m still in shock)… and apparently Bill has some wicked cool stuff to show off that recently came out for the gaming world including the SideWinder X6 Keyboard (in this part) and the SideWinder X5 Mouse (coming soon in Part II). Check it out, let us know what you think.

PS: Maaaake sure to stay tuned after the closer, as Stefan gives Cesar a “run” for the show. So who’s the better dancer???

Geek by birth, Microsoftie by choice!

Woah...My mind was just BLOWN! Seriously, some of the things coming for Microsoft Hardware make me wish I used a desktop system in daily prodcution. I do have dual Quad-Core Xeon machine that sits under my desk and runs Hyper-V workloads, perhaps I can grab a SideWinder keyboad for it. Finally, Stefan's Chicken Dance just destroyed anything Ceaser ever did. Smiley

That keyboard, is sweet. That moveable numpad would come in handy to make more room for the mouse, which I do have issues with from time to time. That cruise control feature sounds neat as well. I've never heard of this, is this a C8 exclusive, or do I live in a cave?

Microsoft hardware is definitely one of the best out there. Though, I am not too convinced on the sidewinder mouse (the feel of it in the store was all wrong). Bluetrack though, top notch.

That keypad could be so handy I am in need of a new keyboard when does this come out cause if I can macro those keys I can think of many uses in gaming and outside of gaming for those.

So he said something about them only being macros in gaming mode is that just a button press to change back and forth or is it something that detects certain games and programs opening.

Chicken Dance so Full of Win. I think we need a dance off.
