How 'stiff' are these cables compared to the ones that came with the Rosewill rk9000? I'm getting tired of bending my cables to lay better.
Mimics cables are not nearly as stiff as the Roswill cables.

The Premium Silver Silica ones are my clear favourite!

Is it soft to the feel, similar to the paracord?  Or is it more like the plastic?

What keyboard is it for?
I'm not too sure..
I was trying to think of a Korean board that had the USB to PS/2 like that, but I can't recall many... perhaps an LZ?

Nope, the cable is solder directly to the PCB. Just like The Cheat

Just an update for those who haven't received cables yet. I will be shipping a handful of them out tomorrow morning and the rest will ship out no later than next Monday. But, I'm hoping to get the rest shipped out by this Friday. Thank you for your support and patience all!

Once I get all of these orders out, I'll update my OP with a few things then start taking orders again.  Thank you to those who have purchased cables from me and those who have sent kind words my way. I really appreciate it and makes making cables that much more fun and satisfying.  What is even more crazy to me is that since I started this thread (09/29/2012), I have sold 211 cables! Thanks again and stay tuned for some more giveaway and updates :)

Also, make sure you check out Techkeys.us for exclusive items!

The usb that connects to QFR is mini usb, or it looks like it at least. heh.

Is there some reason to have USB over PS2 or vice versa connected to tower?

PS/2 Is usually a better choice because it offers full NKRO without any problems.
