There's a big difference--a MIDI keyboard is a synthesizer equipped with MIDI while a standard keyboard is your desktop or laptop's computer keyboard. Don't get the two confused! What might be causing the confusion is that MIDI is the standardcommunication interface used in synthesizers that most synth manufactures (i.e. Yamaha, Roland, Korg) use.

There are a lot of different types of music keyboards that come in different sizes and capabilities so to say that there's a standard keyboard is a bit ambiguous.

What is the purpose of having a weighted keyboard?

The purpose of a weighted keyboard is to better simulate playing an actual piano. Skilled piano players can achieve variations in the sounds produced by striking the weighted keys of a piano with different intensity. Additionally, since playing a piano or keyboard involves the use of muscles in the hands and arms, a weighted keyboard helps condition these muscles to better provide the strength and endurance to play an actual piano.
