I Bought a New Keyboard, and It's Beautiful!

Who actually does have an issue with PS/2 keyboard for plug and play?

Apparently those people who never heard of a PS/2->USB adapter.

[Cortexian]

Yeah I think when they said it has literally never been an issue, they were referring to the fact that they keyboard doesn't randomly or accidentally come unplugged. Not sure how you'd have something setup so that cables could get snagged like that accidentally, as it's something you should think about when setting up a desktop system. Cable management is just as important OUTSIDE of the computer case.

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.

Yeah my keyboard has that problem, so i just press the esc on each subsequent login because that cancels it out and is no longer an issue.

TBH, I'm not gonna cancel a pre-order over the fact I gotta press a key.

Yes I have autism prefer legacy interfaces for my hardware which is why I use a mouse with a DB-25 connector through a pci card.

I tried ESC and a bunch of other keys, doesn't help. Just interrupts while I press it.

Ah, when he said he never had a problem, I thought he meant he was hotplugging with no issues. Not sure how you guys never had that issue, but the cable getting unplugged a couple times a month used to be an issue for me before I switched to USB peripherals.

you don't need to grease cables up before you plug them in

1 month in, any problems with the keyboard freelancer, and is it a full size keyboard?

i think razers have smaller key caps according to my brother

[Cortexian]

It is a fullsize, no small keycaps or anything like that. I returned it less than a week after having it because I couldn't stand red switches. Waiting for the Blue Switch version to come in stock and then I'll pick it up again.
