LMAO

Heat it up....

not enough to burn or melt it.... LOL

Get some kind of crimp tool and get the cord pretty warm.... its the rubber thats curled.. not the wires on the inside, they just follow the rubber surround coating.

Funny keyboard.

Have you looked at what that keyboard is worth?
You may want to sell it and get a faster CPU!
