A couple of questions for those who have (or have used) this keyboard: 1) I keep seeing reports of issues with the "magnetic feet" of the keyboard. Can anybody clarify whether this is in reference to the normal rubber pads on the bottom of the keyboard that are meant to keep it in place while in use, or if these are in reference to the pieces that can be attached to the bottom to angle the keyboard (such that the back of it sits higher than the front of it)? This distinction is important to me as I never give my keyboards a positive angle. So if the issue is with the things used to do that, it's a non-issue for me. But if the issue is with just keeping the keyboard in place, then it's a non-starter for a $200 keyboard. 2) Is it possible to turn off the LED lights that surround the edge of the keyboard while still keeping the keys backlit? Thanks in advance!

Hammer521) It is definitely the issue with the extra little things you would put on if you wanted an inclined or declined angle. 2) Yes!

DgordonOh, interesting. I didn't realize a decline angle was an option. That might actually be useful. I guess I can try it and if it falls off too often I can just prop it up with something else. Thanks for the response! Now I just need to figure out why Cherry MX Brown keyboards are out of stock everywhere (and on the CTRL for the past couple of months)...

Hammer52You could get the no switches or keycaps option and just get them yourself? I personally don't like mx browns. I put Kailh Speed Navies on mine.
