It's a good keyboard, but iCue, the software used with it is still wonky. They update it randomly, and then it doesn't work, or it deletes the profile or itself, sort of. How does software sort of delete itself, well, it's just gone, but then you can't uninstall it or install it and you have to jump through hoops to get it back. These days, there is nothing I can do to get iCue to start with Windows startup. It didn't used to have that problem but now... it does. The hardware though, takes a good beating and it keeps going.

Yeah iCUE will just suddenly stop. What I ended up doing was creating a shortcut to the exe and just having it on my task bar so i can just launch it when it closes. Happens every so often, but not too bad. I have the optical version of this KB and it's been great.
These really aren't that competitive in the current market anymore. It's not a bad keyboard but there are better switch makers than Cherry and this doesn't have hot-swap. Plus like the above posters mentioned iCue is terrible.
They're generally pretty well built though and it has a detachable cable and media keys and PBT keycaps (better plastic than ABS).
Just make sure you like speed switches (or are willing to adapt) if you buy this keyboard, they activate with very little force.
