Tomorow I will clean it. It's a Logitech, so it dries nicely.

Hang it out to dry and come back when the worse is over.

Well I abuse my keyboards...I type reallyhard and they start making noise quickly.

I think this one is ok but it's starting to get too noisy. I need a nice soft one.

Interesting....you must be buying cheap keyboards...i really pound the crap out of mine, and i've never had a problem. After all, one time i got busted @ school for typing too fast and too hard.

It is a Logitech 40 Dollars keyboard with all the fancy features I never use. Go figure.

I am mean with them.

Maybe a good cleaning will brighten his spirits.

get a good apple keyboard I've had several apple keyboards over the years, and a Power Computing keyboard... all have been really good to me... I especially like my Apple Extended II, my Apple Adjustable keyboard and for the most part... my iMac keyboard...

I bang the heck out of those things also... I type fast and I make lots of errors, so my most often used key is the delete/backspace key... and I can't imaging that apple seels replacement TiBook keyboards? I might want one soon... especially when I'm mad at something, or need to rant...

Most old PC keyboards are good too, like the IBM ones and that salsa-compaq keyboard...

I have a mini-IBM-ish keyboard (clicky, but thinframed) and it's great as I've seen... haven't the chance to really get clicky with it... but it seemed good when I did some light testing

One time I did some work for a guy who spilled beer in his keyboard. It totally ate up the insides and was really sticky. Of course, it had been sitting a few months.
