Is Nkey rollover important though? Most of us connect keyboards via
USB don't we? And when playing games I've never personally felt at a
disadvantage using a USB connected keyboard, but then again I'm no
longer a big gamer.

Has anyone here been able to discern (or even been able to detect)
that the keyboard they're using supports NKEY rollover? Perhaps it is
just me and NKEY rollover is actually important!

Cheers,
Jonathan
