The mouse is better in every way. You can turn really fast,  whereas
with the kbd, you can only turn a certain speed, which really will
kill you if you play deathmatch against a mouser.

For you  mousers..I use 1st button forward, 2nd button jump,
and third button duck. I use / for bacwards and the standard CTRL
for  fire, and alt for strafe..ANYONE have a better config??
Just wondering..ok. later everyone..
