Hi

Im making my HTPC gaming-able, but how is the best way to use a
mouse/keyboard in a lounge scenario for gaming, what can I buy to rest
keyboard/mouse on that will be at the right height.

Should I get something to rest on my lap or is there something you would
buy like a coffee table or something, how do you do it?

Ive been a coffee table pc'er/gamer for 10 years. Tried various setups
through the years and always come back to a coffee table. Needs to be
slightly higher than most, my table height is the same height as the top of
the sofa cusion before its sat on.

No i dont sit back much and yes I use an N52 and mouse for games and things
I use a lot (gimp maps well to the N52) and the keyboard gets pushed back
under the monitor till i have to type something like this....spent years
using wireless desktop sets till i realised i was giving away a ton of
reaction time as you are lucky to get a remote mouse that polls faster than
50ms, so now remote keyboard that i can put on my lap (usually dont tho) and
a wired mx518.
