I thought a keyboard was just a keyboard. Why are some as cheap as 10 bucks and others well over 100? What's low down on computer keyboards? What do you look for or want as an extra in a keyboard? What is just useless price hiking crap?

My keyboard is a Logitech G15.

It has illuminated keys, it has 18 programmable keys with 3 options each, it has a digital clock and timer, it has volume control, it has an equalizer readout.

It has buttons I don't even know what they do.

Something like that seems to have much more than I'd ever use. I hate going into the store and asking any of the sales people in there because they just go straight for the most expensive product they have and try to convince me that I HAVE to have all this stuff.

Digital clock I hae on my screen, Volume control I have on my speakers, equalizer readout??? Don't even know what that's for!

Illuminated keyboard sounds cool though. But I don't want to pay an extra 80 bucks just for the one option either.


As for the "other" keyboard, I have a hard enough time trying to type what I want to while looking at the faded keys I have.
