Its not really too much of a bother to put the carpet down. Its more of a really big rug than it is a carpet. I can move it easily.

I'm on a macintosh. Would this pad work at all for me?

I assume so, cause it's USB.

OS X doesn't need special drivers (or any drivers at all). Go crazy.

I'm going to buy this tommorow at EB games. Can anyone give me a few suggestions to increase the life of this pad?

i got a 3.0 about 2 weeks ago. its a wonderful pad and it got the job done better then any pad i've ever used (aside from the arcade) however, today i noticed something while playing max 300 on heavy. i can hit an arrow dead on and it will miss/boo/almost. this only happens some of the time. then i tried it with some songs i have AAA'd on light and the same thing occured. i wonder, is the pad broken? can i get it fixed/replaced? has thsi happened to anyone else?

It takes maybe 30 to 60 minutes for it to get to full potential as the pad needs to straighten out as well as the foam because it was packed together and all. It just needs play I suppose.

I got mine at EB a few days ago and like this one a little better.

I don't know if anyone else has notice, but the padding around the raised arrows is thicker. I e-mailed a representative and they confirmed my suspicions. They said a lot of people complained about the plastic pieces tearing the top after prolonged use, which just started happening to mine.

I hooked mine up to the computer for Stepmania and it worked great. It is Plug-n-Play for the computer. You just have to map the joystick in the options setting of Stepmania. You don't need any other packs.

As far as the warranties, I got the $10 one at my EB. I believe that you can buy the warranty regardless if they tell you no. You should call their customer service hotline. I believe that if they sell warranties on other pieces of hardware, they have to be consistent and offer you a warranty for the 3.0. (I have 15+ years of exp. in the retail industry, so take my advice for what it's worth

Overall a good pad. Worth the 99 bucks. Now...on to AAA'ing The Legend of Max.

I'm sad. I went to the EBGames downtown and they only had 2.0s out in front. They were too busy and I couldn't ask them if they had the 3.0. I think I'm going to get it this weekend, as ITG will be out soon.
