Just an idea for modding. I was thinking about the possibility of taking the EluminX keyboard out of it's frame and putting it in an Enermax Crystal frame. That way you can have the cool aluminum frame, usb/audio ports, and backlit keyboard. As far as I can tell, both keyboards are exactly the same setup. However I don't have both to measure in person. I would also give it an exotic paint job, something from this site maybe:

At least as far as the Aurora is concerned, it seems to me they don't have the same layout...

Look at the Insert-Home-Page Up row on the Aurora vs. the EluminX, or even the fact that F1-F12 rows on the Aurora are spaced from the rest of the keys, where they aren't on the EluminX. From what I can tell, the lack of spacing on the EluminX should mean it's a physically smaller keyboard.
That paint linky is pretty cool though... there are some colours there I wouldn't mind seeing on my mouse... hmmm...

Oh, I see. The Aurora has full sized keyboard. I was looking at the Crystal, lol. I never noticed the Aurora vs. Crystal. Well I wanted to use the Crystal anyway since it's unpainted.
