You must be a happy guy then. Mine does handle some combinations up to 5
keys but most of the time it works well only for two or three keys preessed
at the same time. It's due to hardware implemenation of the keyboard.
Usually arrows keys are handled normally, i.e. you can press them altogether
and keyboard will send you each scan code. But I know a lot of keyboards
that doesn't work the same with letter and cipher keys...

bye.
