Funny, even when I game I rest my hand on the home keys. I just change the binds to use SDFE instead of WASD, why should I shift my hand to play a game, it makes me type faster in game also when voice chat isn't available, plus it gives me another column of keys to bind.

I wonder if they will also determine if it's just trackball or touchpad also, I know on touchpads I'm all over the place since I suck at them. The end guy is hard with all that two-finger gestures.

I think the terms of patents are too long. I think they should only last 5 years at MAX, and that should really depend on startup/manufacturing time. Basically if you didn't start making money from it and making your brand name known in 5 years for your "invention" then you don't deserve the profits of the idea after that time. We don't need to stifle innovation, we need it to grow, so make patents only a temporary place holder, NOT a business model!
