The keyboard in question is a Zippy EL-715. Chosen carefully amongst all the glowy keyboards.

Nerd?! BAH! The term would be "geek" (or the PC version, "technologically-inclined person"). No thick, black, plastic, taped up glasses for me. Burberry, Gucci, & Versace only thank you very much. :)

Seriously though, never been in a basement. Tampa, FL doesn't have them since you hit water if you start digging. Houston sure doesn't have them because it floods here.. ever driven down a normally heavily-traffic'd road & been overtaken by a boat? Not good places for basements.

As for a beer cooler-holder.. you need a hole saw, metal strapping, some screws, a co2 bottle, electric on/off valve, 12v battery, duct tape, and a bunch of braided, stainless steel tubing. Wire it to your trigger. Everytime you shoot at somebody, you're rewarded with colder beer. MMmmmmmm.

Or, you could get a mini fridge/warmer from ThinkGeek. :D

Where's the fun if it's pre-built & doesn't make loud noise? :)

Plus, I've got 2 mini-fridges, one I actually use, and 1 waiting on a conversion to a keg cooling dispenser. They sell those now even at Best Buy, but wth, I've got a spare laying around already that I can take a drill to.
