Mouse Dirt

[aon]

Hi,

It's a widely recognized fact that keyboards collect dirt (there's even a comic about it). But have you ever looked inside your mouse? I have...

   

Rodents spread bubonic plague in the 14th century, and I really don't wonder why Perhaps I should get one of these antibacterial mice.

there's even a comic about it

I like this one better.

I almost throw up every time I see that comic.    I look around at work and see some of the nastiest, filthiest keyboards I have ever seen.  I never eat near my 'board (or PC, in general), and I always make sure I have clean hands.  I also dust my keyboards every so often and clean them with a Lysol wipe, or something, if necessary.  I hate going over to someone's PC and having to use their filthy keyboard.  I always end up going to wash my hands if I do.  Take care of your things (esp. keyboards ), and they'll take care of you.

I almost threw up (and that's not something that happens easily) when I opened this cherry keyboard I'm working on:



Now it's a bit better already:



The keys and case are currently drying.

I just about threw up looking at the thumbnail of that image.

I guess that's not what they mean by "Cherry Browns" in the first picture...
