I had one cleaned "ultrasonically" once -- they put it in a huge tub of water and let it soak while the ultrasonic sound vibrations cleaned the dirt out. Then it had to dry for about 24 hours I think -- worked fine afterwards though. I buy the cheap ones now though, and when they start wearing out I just buy another one -- I go through about one a year but thats because I spend a lot of time on it. ~Lacey~ ----- Original Message ----- From: "cris" <cris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, June 26, 2004 7:20 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: cleaning a keyboard > That was my thought - got to be jOking!!!
