How often do you clean your keyboard?

Once a decade?  (See above.)  Once a week?  After every sentence?

There is no right answer, so let's hear yours.






(Bonus points for anyone who knows whether the chap who owned the keyboard pictured ever did get around to cleaning it or if he just binned it.)

I wipe it with alcohol every week.

Disassembly and deep clean: maybe not as often as I should.

Wiping down keys, sometimes after a session or during but probably 1 to 2 weeks on average. Caps are pulled when there's a noticeable amount of dust and crud underneath.

Not often.  I use a dust cover when not in use. Wash my hands before use, and have no pets.  I change keycaps regularly and haven't noticed that any of them are dirty enough to warrant cleaning yet.
