Backlit keyboard for desktop

So I am looking for a new backlit keyboard. Doesn't need to be a gaming one as I don't want to be spending stupid money. Suggest away!

    How much is "stupid money"? $50 too high?

    I know it says "gaming" but I always go with Logitech for their keyboards because they always last the longest and don't generally suck.

    I love my Logitech Illuminated Keyboard so much, you don't even know. I want everybody to have one! It's not a 'gamer' keyboard at all.

    And I have the wireless version of that Logitech Illuminated Keyboard, and do very much enjoy it, even for light gaming.

    I hate those ultra thin keyboards.

    Yeah my post wasn't particularly helpful, that's my fault.

    Taking a look at the G110, its not too expensive but finding it for such a good price in Aus as listed on Amazon is a different story. Also after finally being back on the desktop I realised that I really do need the keyboard to be rather quiet as well. The current keyboard is just horrendously loud.

    I have one as well, and I love mine too! It just looks really classy (as well as being a joy to type on/game with).

    I type so much faster on it than my regular cheap Microsoft keyboard. At a conservative estimate, I'd say somewhere around 50% better wpm.
