I have here on my new keyboard a key labeled "turbo" and i'd like to know what it's supposed to do.  I assumed it would make the graphics look worse in return for better framerate like the turbo feature in Delta Force but it doesn't do anything because this keyboard isn't completely XP compatible.  I just want to know what it's supposed to do.

If it is anything like the turbo button on some console controllers, holding the button down will become similar too rapidly pressing the button over and over again if activated.

I haven't seen a Turbo button on anything since the 486 days.

It doubles the voltage to your keyboard, overclocking it to ~4 MHz from the stock 2. Just don't do it too often, or you'll burn out the keyboard.

BF2 will let you shoot and move faster just because you're pressing turbo?  Do you have to hold or simply press it once and how long does it last?

Yes, I didn't notice anything but maybe that's because I don't know what the fuck it's supposed to do.  Can someone give a clear answer please?  I know it gives it more voltage and overclocks it, but what does that do for a keyboard and what can it do for BF2?

What is the "turbo" key supposed so do?
The marketing department at Rosewill added the turbo key to help sell more keyboards.  The key does not actually do anything useful but keyboard sales have been up lately.

If your turbo key looks like this everytime you press it local youths will break dance in an effort to keep their local youth center open.  Should be bound to the Ozone and Kelly keys.

What exactly are you overclocking in your keyboard?
