Thanks Dez and Zin. I read the Happy Hacking thing and was like 'OH yeah!' only prob is it's like $70?!?! zomg

Prior to coming back I actually did find one that looks alright on newegg. I was defeated by their tagging system. Silly me clicked on the 'wired' tag and it eliminated a very good keyboard that meets my req's. It's $10, figured I couldn't go wrong.

I also got one of those flexy usb led lights since I won't have the backlight anymore. :-(
