This latest patent held by Microsoft, featured a multi-touch virtual keyboard design, solved the issue that user could not really feel and locate the on screen keyboard without looking at it.

It’s so bored to use the regular computer keyboard every day. The Keyboard illuminate Sticker may raise some interests, but still not enough.
How about this one, it’s from Luxeed, a computer keyboard with colour changing LEDs under the touch strips of each key.
The blinking colours on keyboard will no doubt catch some eye balls, but moreover with the software bundle, by creating different patterns of different colour LED lights, you can make some fantastic lighting in a creative way.
