Price
The price. No headphone or microphone ports.
Expensive

Mushy key feel (to some)
Need for a power supply
Lack of precise CPU/RAM monitoring tool

High MSRP
AC adapter hates vertical power strips
Limited backlighting brightness

Keys are responsive

Logitechs $200 G19 Gaming Keyboard boasts a built-in color LCD with exciting capabilities, as well as lots of little improvements over previous models. But with few apps--thus far--that take advantage of the screen in a meaningful way, the G19s poten...
