Me too. A friend of mine often tries to prove to me that his keyboard is better than mine because it has about 30 extra buttons. The sad part is, at least 3 of those buttons conflict with other controls somewhere else and can mess up whatever is going on the screen, and additionally, he often spends 3-6 seconds looking for the button he wants, despite claiming he has proficiency over the entire setup, which is not to say anything of people who don't have any familiarity with his setup, often find themselves completely lost for 10-15 seconds before asking him for help where he takes another 3-6 seconds to complete the action.

To be fair, he does run a dual monitor setup and usually has dozens of applications open at any time, so that can be a tricky computing environment to begin with, but still, that keyboard is retardalicious.
