I tried to find some information on the switches and have not been successful.  Some brief discussion on Reddit (http://en.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/1patst/buying_new_rosewill_rk6000_on_sale_for_60/) about it, and someone suggested simplified white Alps.

It's clearly for someone who really wants to be in Control of their button mashing combos  ;)

Cool.  Is it only the boards listed in that search?

I think so--the link is from Newegg's eBlast newsletter.  Haven't verified it, but you'd see the 30% off listed over all sale items if you just look at all Roswell items.

Good deal! I got mine from newegg and I got the 3 year warranty , on the product it goes to 2 year so you have to purchase the warranty separate from the menu. Can get 3 year for $15 ;)

I didn't get a warranty because I intend to void mine as soon as I open the box!  :))

I could see how this could lead to some tough-sell RMAs...

"Almost a dozen switches stopped working when I soldered them to a new board."
"Mounting bracket broke after a few re-insertions."
"It arrived with a soldering-iron shaped burn on it. Honest."

Totally not sure you were talking about a keyboard for a minute there...

I was looking at this, and it's a decent price for someone who wants a cheap NIB alps board
