I got a Microsoft Plasma Purple Keyboard and a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer v4.0 Plasma Purple mouse.

hell wit bluetoof. that shiz is not catching on like it should have. now it's time for it to die.

edit: it's for my GF. I was browsing the alienware site and she saw they have all kinds of things in "cool colors!" so then she begged me for a new keyboard and mouse.

that's what she asked for. She saw the price, I told her that's going to take a big chuck out of my budget for her.... she still wants em

she doesn't care about the keyboard, or the mouse... it's the "cool color" she wants. I showed her cheaper ones, she didn't like em

could have took her existing keyboard and mouse and painted them any *CoOl CoLoRs*,..would have costed you 10 bucks most,..and some of your time

but as long as shes happy than i can see how you justify paying that price,..its for your girl :thumbup:
