The email point wasnt about the email being plain text as much as them sending his chosen password in plain text, which means they store it in plain text...
They may or may not store his password as plain text. It's possible that the e-mail was generated dynamically when he entered his password in some form, while the password was in memory. They still might have used some kind of hash for permanent storage.
Seriously? Lights? That makes me think of the posers who put lights on their car's wheels.
I'm a fan of mechanical keyboards and intentionally sought one with adjustable backlighting. My Lenovo ThinkPad also features adjustable keyboard backlighting.
Both these keyboards are hugely helpful to me for the simple reason that I often use my computers in low light or darkness. This allows me to limit my exposure to light when working late, and thus avoid disrupting my circadian rhythm due to the effect of light on the suprachiasmatic nucleus.
So, yes, seriously. Lights.

Easy to setup, works like a charm

Actually, real pros use
cat > filename
then type Ctrl-d when done.
Seriously.
