I guess that affects the Performa as well? More then likely, yeah. I think all pizza boxes suffer this problem, if not then at least the Q605, P475, and LC475 all do thanks to them being almost identical.

What's the problem with the PSUs? What are the symptoms? Is it something I should watch out for?
As for the keyboard, I like the switches on the keyboard I've got. I find that mechanical switches are too stiff for my typing style. The feel of the standard keyboard certainly requires some getting used to, but after a day or two of light use I find it's second nature.
But if you're not typing long documents then mechanical switches are probably fine. But really, don't waste your money.

Mechanical keyboards vs. Non-Mechanical: To me, it seems to come down mainly to personal preference. Some like mechanical, others like non-mechanical, and still others don't really have a preference.
I fall into the third category. I don't really care too much which one I get, so long as it does it's job reasonably well.
That's my 2¢ with the keyboard discussion.

What's the problem with the PSUs? What are the symptoms? Is it something I should watch out for? HDD not spinning up, not enough power for peripherals, etc. Mainly power problems. The caps in the power supply will start leaking. Just need recapping. 😛

Well the power supply in my LCIII is going bad. Its not ticking persay, its actually firing up and working but the picture/video on the monitor is scrambled and jumping around until it warms up for a minute or two. Then its fine. Mobo is recapped.
So yea, Thats another symptom to look for.
