Fantastic news there hip, there's nothing worse than a dodgy bit of hardware messing up your rig. Get some pics up soon, we wanna see your 'pit in action.

So if you aren't using the TM 868, what are you using? I was just thinking about picking up an 868, but don't want to if hardware faults are common. Thanks.

I dont think that there is a real problem with the 868 in general..just a little bad luck
I am using a Lillput now and it is working niceley
I plan to see if I can get the 868 repaired...

Thanks for the quick response, Hipshot. I would really like an 800X600 display, but it's at least $50 more from what I can find, so I'm gonna go ahead with the 868.

Are those X Keys Desktop on either side of your middle monitor? If so, how did you get them to light up the way they do?

Was wondering if anyone would catch that!!
They are small LED spotlights
As you can see in the pic, it makes the xkeys appear to be backlit
I just used a little velcro to attach them to the base of my flight controlers
Radioshack sells one with a slightley bluish light
the ones I use are from:
