I have a Thermaltake Level 10 case the LED control button allows you to change the colour of the lights through a sequence of Blue, Green, Red or a fast change patterned sequence of all three or a slow change patterned of all three or just turn them off.
Although I must admit I only use them at Christmas or if playing a lot of music
I had a red/blue/violet backlit keyboard from Saitek for ten years. It was a great keyboard and perfect for playing SH4 in the relative dark without killing my night vision for those evening ambush attacks. But for some reason my lighted fans and my external disk drives are lit in blue. Finally the electronics went out and it sent an autorepeated single letter to my computer until it crashed. Thought a reboot might fix it but no, it was the keyboard. Keyboards apparently don't have dying words, they have dying letters...

I agree with the modern navy that blue doesn't interfere with my night vision either. Backlit keyboards are presently in a $100 phase right now, so I'm not replacing the Saitek Eclipse II, which was the best keyboard I've ever owned. The typing quality of keyboards is steadily increasing though, as people abandon traditional ten-finger typing. I'm a dinosaur!
