    k_jonsie_ got a reaction from elecxonica in duct tape mounting things to my desk   
    so my external drive always gets lost because it slips around on my desk and i needed a permanent solution.  I grabbed some duct tape and mounted it to the under side of the desk.

    A Zowie EC1 sounds like something you might like. A Corsair M45/M65 (depending on sensor preference, M45 has an excellent sensor) might work as well. I have the same grip as you although my hands are much smaller and the M65 feels amazing. Not super sure about the M65/45 since your hands are much bigger than mine, but it's an option.
     
    A Roccat Kone would be great as well if you can find them for the right price.

    So my mouse has been serving me pretty well these past two years and you can definitely tell with all the wear and tear on the bottom of it.  I had a keyboard but decided to ditch it because it was lagging behind with my keystrokes.  So this is going to be a long-ish post of what I'm looking for and hoping to get.
     
     
    First off, you probably need to know what I'm going to do with the mouse, keyboard, and mousepad(do i need one!?).  Well, considering I only have one machine, I have to game on it, do school-related things, and program/code.  I've tried discerning my way through keyboard switches but each video seems a bit too opinionated in my opinion .  I don't have a way to test the keyboards or switches to see what I like.  I guess the work load is about 65% typing, 35% gaming.  I play games like CS:GO and LOL so something reliable is a necessity.  A Num-Pad is absolutely necessary because I use it for coding.  Mouse-wise, I honestly have no idea.  I don't play many MMOs except for EVE online which really doesn't require many buttons on a mouse and I'm used to using the keyboard shortcuts in League so I don't want it on my mouse.  Something again, reliable, but also something that's going to work and be responsive to small changes for CS:GO.  
     
    Now here's the thing: I've never used a mouse pad before.  Most of my friends use them and I've for some reason never got around to getting one.  If it'll improve the lifespan of my mouse, then I'll get one but the problem is.  THERE ARE TOO MANY OF THEM LIKE PLS SEND HELP.  Do they even benefit me or are they just another waste of money?
     
    So in conclusion here's what I'm hoping for:  A mechanical keyboard with a num-pad that's comfortable to type on for long periods of time and can also game on them.  A nice mouse that'll last me a while and is pretty accurate with a higher sensitvity.  A big mouse mat to improve the life span of the mouse???
     
     
    thank you so so so much for your help :>

    you should ask for help on a "specialized" forum for your problem
    go on forum.xda-developers.com and search for your device then you'll probably find the answer there
    also, there are a lot of galaxy s3 variants(sprint/t mobile/ at&t/ i9300/i9305....) so be careful what tutorial you follow(if it's for your model of s3)

    Laptops are just hot in general. Is your laptop cooler actually blowing air into the vents? Most of them blow air into just the plastic... Is the cooler blocking the vents? Some actually do.
     
    Get some canned air and blow out the dust.

    k_jonsie_ reacted to Torand in Canon EOS T4i vs. Canon 60D   
    I've just upgraded to the 60d from my 600d (t3i).
     
    I loved the 600d, but the incremental upgrade for me was worth it.
     
    I use the display at the top of the grip a lot for quick settings. LOVE the clicky dial instead of the d-pad and the larger grip was a huge relief for my large hands. The camera just feels better, the higher bust rate is really handy for my style and the shutter has a very mechanical and pleasant sound, unlike the rebel series where its very electronic.
     
    For me it was a worthwhile upgrade. 
     
    Although you are going to have to get the 60d quick as they are now discontinued now the 70d is out, so new stock is only whats left then you'll have to go pre owned. My other reason for upgrading was that I got a new 60d from DigitalRev for £425. Which was also one of the main factors for my upgrade, a new body for so cheap is just amazing. Certainly was worth the money, love that new camera feel as well, had my 600d for around 2 years. But they are going fast so get one while you can OP!
     
    Against the T4i, really the only thing IMO in which the T4i has over the 60d is the touch screen, but with the top screen on the 60d, everything is easy/quick enough to change anyway.

    There are a lot of good offerings on the market, but I honestly think you should scrape some more money together so you only have to buy a tripod once. I have two, a Velbon and a Manfrotto both on the good side of 20 years old and they're both still rock solid and always dependable. I'd say the Manfrotto to buy these days is the Manfrotto 458B Neotec, but it is on the expensive side. Just look at it as a long term investment.
