I know this is not exactly a VB question but:

Anyone know how to increase the keyboard rate and decrease the keyboard delay beyond what one can do in the control-panel?
Will some API call do the trick?

When I am programming I think it is better to be able to move fast up and down the code (not using PGUP/PGDN) without having to use the mouse.

Back in the ol'days there where a neat proggie called QuickPC. It set the rate of the keyboard waaay up, making it much nicer to code.
