Oh man I love it. This was my first time buying a mechanical keyboard, so I wasn't sure if I was going to come across any problems when it comes to preferring a certain switch type, but I looooooooove brown switches now. I love the actuation levels, clicky sounds, key layout, and colours of it. I don't have a single bad thing to say about it yet. I've had it for just under 2 months now probably.

I kind of wish I bought an abyssus instead as I didn't expect the deathadder to be so big, but it's grown on me now, so I'm not in a hurry to replace it anytime soon. I also wasn't expecting the pad to be so big. Now I don't even have room to put my dinner on my table beside it lol. On March 28 2012 09:16 Whatson wrote: How do you like the death-adder? Just commenting a bit on it above in response to Sultan.P, but it's alright. I think I would have preferred a bit smaller mouse had I known it's size initially as I used to have more of a claw grip (more palm-claw hybrid now), but I've gotten used to it. I really do like the shape of it/curves though as it fits right in to my hand. Scroll wheel is nice and the cord is braided as well; never gets tangled or anything like that. Really really accurate now especially with the new mouse pad. It wasn't my style initially because of my mouse grip (my hands are relatively big still), but I have no complaints as far as quality and performance goes. | ||

This keyboard has cherry mx brown switches actually. More detailed in response to MisterD's post, but they're fantastic. I've never had a mechanical keyboard before, and I definitely won't go back now. Brown switches are everything I dreamed of, so I don't plan on switching to any other type in the foreseeable future either. If I could get thsi keyboard over and over again for the rest of my life I would be content. | ||

If I could get thsi keyboard over and over again for the rest of my life I would be content. Ya the keyboard really is a delight. But be careful man. A couple weeks ago the port behind the keyboard where you connect the USB cord got screwy on me and actually stopped responding. I think it was jammed inside the keyboard or something. Mind you the max I moved the keyboard was just around the desk; it's not like I was throwing it around. I read that this defect has happened to other ppl as well. I was so sad because I also had browns too and was just in love with it. Anyways, I contacted rosewill and the customer support was very good, they opened a RMA ticket for me on newegg.com and I sent it back. Within a week I had a brand new rosewill again and everything is back to awesome =). The keyboard has a 3 year warranty btw, so if it ever happens you know what to do! | ||

Oh god, I've made my share too, but CAT6 is worse; the certification testers are soooooo much more strict on everything being perfect when certifying cables you've made. I kept redoing one of my CAT6 cables in a lab because it wouldn't pass the certification meter for like 4 hours as part of our "final exam" for the lab (consisting of other things of course, was sort of a take home final). Finally my lab instructor walks in and goes "oh shit I gave you CAT 5e ends instead of CAT 6." -_-;; | ||

When I was in the Army, me and some other guys got pressed into service to run a few miles total of CAT5 in the Division HQ tent during an exercise. It was even worse, because I was one of the lower guys on the totem pole, so I was physically running the cables while someone else made them. Got about halfway through before they booted anything, and suddenly we found out that the cables didn't work. The clown decided it didn't matter what order the wires were in, as long as both sides were the same. After that, I ended up making the next batch, which was several dozen 50m+ cables. And then, due to carelessness and constant shuffling around of PCs, we kept having to make new ones daily, for a good couple of months. | ||
