This is true, but the metal volume rolly thing totally makes up for this on the K90 in my book

I have a black widow, and it is very nice. I am not a fan of razer usually, but this one gets the job done. Only downside is that it is glossy.

Things that are a must for me:
-Mechanical
-Easily removable keys
-Not too over-the-top with looks (BW is a bit on the high side, but looks ok)
-Backlighting
-NO media keys. none. get rid of them.
