This is just a post of a few questions.

What's anti Ghosting? What's Key Rollover, and what's the difference between the two?

They're pretty much the same thing.... 

Both allow the keyboard to recognize multiple keystrokes. I.e. without key-rollover or anti-ghosting if you pressed w+a+g one/more of those keys could theoretically not register. (random key choices--theres nothing specific about those keys)

Heres a useful link about anti ghosting and key rollover: http://www.overclock.net/t/491752/official-mechanical-keyboard-guide#post_6009418

Key rollover describes how many keys you can click at once and register while ghosting just describes the effects if you try to click 2 keys at once (it registers as a different key than the 2 keys that you clicked)
