First full-size gaming headset (2004) First mechanical gaming keyboard - SteelKeys 6G (2006)

Top: Heaton with the original Icemat Audio in 2004/2005ish, before anyone had figured out how to look natural in sponsor pictures. And he was actually way better at it than most. The Icemat Siberia Full-Size Gaming Headset (what a name) was the first over-ear headset in gaming. Literally, the first headset to cover the ears, not press on them. 14 years ago that was innovation. 

It’s like we lived in caves.
