Why clean a keyboard of course!

You may have seen the grimmy model M I picked up a couple of weeks ago.

I used the dishwasher on the keys and casing then went back with some rubbing alcohol to clean the extra dirty parts.

Big thanks to the people who posted the guides.

What do you use to get between the barrels?  I have such a hard time with that part!

Those foam tipped makeup applicators or a chop stick wrapped with a paper towel.

Or your balls?



Trackballs, of course.

I clean out mouse trackballs every once in a while when their tracking gets bad. But, as far as computers go...my computers are ugly to begin with so there's not much reason to bother cleaning them.
