I've got quite a few keyboards, some of which i must admit are in a fairly manky state. I saw a youtube video a while back of a chap who put his through the dishwasher then left it in the airing cupboard to dry for a week.

What do you do to clean yours?

Use to buy ex office ones from computer fairs, the old indestructable cherry's.

Fill the bath, add some washing up liquid and leave to soak for a couple of hours (overnight if you can), then leave them in a warm dry place for a couple of days e.g. airing cupboard.

NOTE: I cannot guarrantee this will work perfectly and implementer accepts full responsibility for their own actions!

That's been the philosophy that got me into this situation of having loads of keyboards, thought I might try another solution this time laugh
