Looks cool for sure.
Been using old PS/2 keyboards since I started using computers. They work.

Not if they get unplugged while Windows is running. Have fun restarting your PC.

Been running a PS/2 keyboard for years and this has literally never been an issue
Re: I Bought a New Keyboard, and It's Beautiful!
Just pre ordered the Razer Chroma. Same idea as this, but DOES come with an API for altering how the colors work when you do things in game.
Re: I Bought a New Keyboard, and It's Beautiful!
Hope they fixed all the problems with the firmware/software in it.
My BlackWidow Ultimate 2013 is unusable after the first login because subsequent logins cause the keyboard to start repeating the enter/return key forever until you quit the software. The firmware update was supposed to fix that specifically, and yet it's still happening... Razer support can't help me either, hence switching to Corsair instead of waiting for the Chroma!
TBH, I'd cancel pre-order until you know if they've fixed the problems in the firmware or not.

Razer are just a shit company in general anyway sooooooo....

Then you are one of the few lucky people who can claim that. PS/2 wasn't designed for plug and play or hot plugging.

...do you hot swap keyboards often? The last time I unplugged mine was when I was moving

This. I was hesitant to switch to a PS/2 keyboard for the whole "but what if it gets unplugged D:" reason. I switched last year. Literally has never been an issue. If i ever need a keyboard for something else, I have my old USB one lying around.
Who actually does have an issue with PS/2 keyboard for plug and play? I've never even heard of that unless its somebody on like... a laptop or something, in which case its irrelevant anyway.
