Why don't the fancy "Gamer" computers have a REAL keyboard port?


Or, just leave the keyboard connected to whatever it originally came with. 
Place the "gamer" 48" monitor on top of that machine.
Run some trivial software on that to output the keyboard data through the 
serial port, cabled down under the table to a Y2K Dell or generic dumpster
computer, and output USB from that to the "gamer" computer, also under the 
table.
