I bought this to replace my previous Rosewill RK-9100xR Cherry Blue Switch keyboard (I suggest you find this old series and save yourself the heartache.) Whose brilliant idea was this Replacing standard, permanent keyboard cables with a detachable mini (not even micro) USB connector? Do you remember all those old mini USB phones? Do you remember how after heavy use they wore down almost to the point of being unusable? Now you can replicate that unwanted experience with a $100 keyboard. Begin. It's been 9 months and the frequency with which the cable comes off (or just enough to stop registration) is annoying. Who needs this bug in a gaming keyboard? Can you imagine that your keyboard suddenly stopped working in the middle of the game? Wow. I am considering buying back my old Rosewill keyboard but to be honest this lack is enough to make me give up Rosewill keyboards completely.
