Ok, so here`s some pics of the little beastie that`s used up so much of my time this week, I`v mounted it to an Alu plate in this picture with little silicone rubber feet, I had to rob some of my daughters beads to use as stand-offs for the board mountin nuts so the underside didn`t short out, I used M2 nuts/bolts, but be careful if you do the same around the Audio out and the Power In corners, as it would be Really easy to short out some vital stuff!
perhaps Nylon if you have it?
the reason other than that of pure mechanical stability was so that I could Also mount it into the slot at the back of my breadboard for ease of wiring later, it`s a bit wobbly at the moment, but nothing a few crimps in the plate edge won`t fix (or bubble gum).
What!?... I like Colors! ok 
besides, it was the cheapest Funky looking keyboard I can find and my kids love it.
thats the entire setup as it stands currently, incidentaly (other than wondering Why I can hear a lawnmower outside when there`s 2 inch of snow), the 12v SLA battery at the right hand side is to power the LCD TV monitor in the background that I use to run the Duinomite on, and yes, the Really observant will have noticed that I`m charging it via a car light bulb.
so yeah, that`s what I`v been messing with for the last week, these things are a dream to program! and I`v already written several progs to help my daughter advance with her maths (beyond the pre-chewed tripe they`re fed at sko0l).
I can hardly wait to get my hands on a RaspberryPi! (who needs sleep anyway?).
