I don't need an FPS counter, ATI Tray tools tells me that.
I don't need 500 macro keys, I'm not retarded, and I'm fully capable of pressing keys in order, thanks.
I don't need light up keys and neither do you, My monitor does a great job of lighting them up at night, and if your case has lights like most of ours do, that just makes it even easier.

I'm pretty sure I got my keyboard at a yard sale about 6 years ago, its black from an eMachines, and I've never owned an eMachine in my life. It lets me press 3 buttons at the same time, and it has a volume switch, and it clicks when I hit it, that's all I need.

And you know what? I'll bet you 50 bucks I can still beat most people in Stepmania, Company of Heroes, Supreme Commander, or any other game that's dependent on a keyboard.
On the light note my keyboard is on under the desk on a keyboard tray to the light doesn't light it up well at all... which is why i bought this keyboard for cheap

My Razer turantula broke after about a year of use, keys just stopped working.
