It's alright Chris I usually can't stand when the mouse ball gets glitchy, so I always clean the mouse... but never the keyboard

Keyboard is realtively dirty but mouse is quite clean (but thats probably because its also quite new )

Clean...keyboard...?

What? O_O

Actually, yeah I do.

Once in while I brush my keyboard and mouse with a lemon scented wipe.

Let me see...

Keyboard: Almost never, unless it gets really, really dirty. But I usually replace my keyboard before reaching the stage of "very, very dirty".

Mouse: About once or twice a month. Sticky and greasy mouse is very uncomfortable to use.

Hehehe, my mouse never gets sticky or greasy, as I always wash my hands before I use it and I make others do the same [img]tongue.gif[/img] .

Mines not dishwasher save so yeah its really really dirty.......

I used to enjoy cleaning the ball mouse - opening up the back and cleaning the little roller thingies. Now with an optical mouse it's no fun

. Our keyboard isn't too bad because no one ever eats or drinks while computering, but I always wipe crap off the mouse when it's there. I can't imagine just leaving it there!

It just doesnt feel normal to have a mouse that doesn't squeek [img]graemlins/lol.gif[/img]

Well, I haven't cleaned either for 6 years or so, so use your imagination.
