    I personally can't imagine doing that on a keyboard. The thing with controller is everything is right there, you can run/maneuver, move the camera and use macros all simultaneously without being an octopus.

    once you learn keyboard, its so much faster, scrolling around to pick a macro = slow as hell.

    Belkin Nostromo N52 is my controller of choice. Awesome little device. I have the d-pad setup to control my movement and 4 of the buttons on top to control camera angle. The little red button to open the menu, and the scroll wheel to tab/shifttab. All of the other buttons are mapped to ALT and CTRL macro's.

    You can do everything in FFXI faster with a keyboard, don't have to switch between a controller to keyboard to type, I can macro, run, type etc with much ease.
