I was thinking about playing Chrono Trigger on a emulator and being able to get past that part in the future were youh ave to push down 4 keys at once.

HAHA, wierd question! Isn't there some window option that changes the speed of how fast the letters are typed? I'll look into it, hold on.

GOT IT: Go to your Control Panel. Then to the keyboard icon and you can change it there!!

Why not just remap one? Let's say: remap the application key to equal control + shift...

AHH, my bad, I was thinking you needed to know how to input keys faster. There are programs that you can download that are like shotcut programs. One is like shortkeys or something, I used it like 3 years ago so I don't know if they're still around. But there are programs if you look for them. www.download.com is a good place to start.

EDIT: Go to www.downloads.com and search for shortkeys! And there you have it . Ahthanku

FYI - I believe that litmit is due to the fact that all of the keys on the keyboard share a given number of traces on the circut they contact. In order to increase the number of key which may be pressed simultaneously, you'd need to build a new keyboard from the ground up using multiple layers of film with the traces (instead of the current two). A new controller circut to interpret the signals and then a circut to convert the new signal to a PS/2 signal..... no thanks...
