: I've heard a lot of conflicting info about the whole "No PC thing".

: "Mouse and Keyboard for FPS" being dead as they invented the
: damn thing. Anyway, I just use the keyboard for Marathon, so maybe they're
: on to something

Like you I only use the keyboard but I feel it's time for another keyboard vs. mouse flame war. ;)

Bungie during the Marathon era were all keyboarders which probably explains why there was never any imperative to get the mouse working properly. Greg Kirkpatrick was the most diehard of keyboarders insisting on playing with the default keyboard setup only and never ever using the caps lock as a run key.

Hands up who remembers the keyboard shortcut to return keyboard preferences to the default settings?

Very handy to know right before a match against an unsuspecting opponent.

Cheers
