Wow! That is a great price. I own one of these keyboards, they are fantastic if you dig mechanical keyboards. Not as awesome as IBM model Ms but they are still awesome.

Great keyboard...still wear on a few letters after a 1+ year of use.

I never bothered to look into these? What is the difference?

I like to play games, but I share the room with my wife, and if these things sound like I'm playing the bongos, that won't do. Which color is for me?

I'm imagining it sounding more like an old type writer lol.

Looks like black or red. Or maybe brown, but definitely not blue.

I've been meaning to try a mechanical keyboard for a while, see if it's really all that. I'm in for a Brown. We'll see how it plays out.

Looking at the reviews on Newegg it seems that a lot of these keyboards are failing due to the problems with the mini-USB jack. I take it you haven't had this problem. What are your thoughts on this?

Only 60% give the keyboard (browns) 4-5 eggs; 40% are 1-3 eggs.

Still, a tempting price...

I got my wife one of the Rosewill MX Brown keyboards as a gift back in March. She works from home and loves it. The only problem has been that the letters on the keys are already fading but it's not a deal breaker.

At this price I'm grabbing one for myself, thanks!

BTW, right now they're automatically bundling this Rosewill RNA-SYM Speaker for free with the keyboards.
