So I'm looking to get a new keyboard, and the one thing that bothers me more than a huge keyboard is a keyboard that will not let me press all four arrow keys at once and other combinations of keys like w+d+a number. Deffinately the worst in a game when you're walking diagonally and you cannot change weapons, or if you play stepmania and you cannot hit all four arrow keys.
 
I use the Saitek Eclipse keyboard and I love it. It's a bit pricey ($45-$55). The best thing for me is the ability to actually see stuff when the room is pitch black. The illumination of the keys is fantastic. It's very well-made and the keys have a soft touch to them. The only other keyboard I've ever used is the default pastey-white PS2 crud. So... I'm spoiled with my Saitek.
 
I like that keyboard, but I was wondering if you can press all four arrow keys at once and have them work. Also such combos as w+d+1 or 2 or 3 or any other number? In fact anyone who wants to test their keyboard and then chime in I would greatly appreciate it. Easiest way to test is to use notepad and to type a couple lines of crap and then press each arrow key and hold and see if the last one you press works. Same goes for the other keys.
 
5$ lite-on keyboard at the egg. Works awesome for gaming. Check it out, it's just a plain black keyboard. Me, my friend and my parents all love ours; plus it's cheap. If you dont like it no worries.
 
I have a logitech elite kb, it was about $25 on newegg...has media controles like volume/play/stop, etc, and a bunch of shortcut buttons. Also has a scroll wheel on it...very good kb
