I though i'd make a statement about the razer black widow keyboard. I got the keyboard a year ago ( i believe ) and so far, it has broken down atleast 5 times. Now i've decided that i'll make a post about how displeased i am with the damn thing.
The first time it decided to break down was right after I spilt some beer on it - all the keys went haywire and i was actually surprised that it worked out well after drying out. At the time, it was also a very convenient reason to clean the board out since it attracts and stores dust like it's the main use of the board. After a 2 day downtime, the bw was up and running. Few months later down the road, i managed to spill something on it again, this time 2 of the switches became extremely tacky and sticky when pressed. - ctrl and escape. Ctrl managed to 'fix itself' after getting pownded on for month, escape though - escape's switch has lost it's tactility. I've showered the board numerous times afterwards with no switch damage.
A few days ago though, some of my keys stopped responding. Namely "." and "n". I tossed the board aside for a few weeks and used a crappy a4tech rubber dome board i got for two bucks. Earlier today, after i got home from my vacation I decided that i missed the mechanical feel and fixed the malfunctioning keys and dusting it out, yet again.
If you decide to get this board - just keep this in mind - It's more trouble then it's worth, the macro utility is a joke, the rubber feet fall off after the first few couple'o months, and as a whole the keyboard keycaps feel crappy. The plastic also bends, but it wont break even after heavy pressure is applied.
All in all - these are just my thoughts laid out for people to see. If anything on the black widow, the circuit is well made so it triggers some kind of failsafe against shorting the board with liquids, since it just stops responding for a while and nothing really fries, and that's about the only pro i can think of, other then it being the cheapest and most widely available mechanical evar.
P.S, excuse the horrible format this post is in.
