How do you clean a greasy keyboard?
[sorry for the gross post] <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />
Made the mistake of eating dinner at my computer the other day, and now my hands get greasy after 5 minutes of typing. Even after washing them, it still happens.
Maybe I'll just switch keyboard with a co-worker.
Any ideas? Thanks.

[edit] Don't forget to ring out the washcloth first, of course! You obviously don't want soapy water dripping into the board behind the keys.

<strong>What every you do, do not use glass cleaner. No way. Glass cleaner has a certain cemical in it that will srtip the protective coating right off your keyborad. Your best bet is to buy some 15cent Rubbing Alcohol with a clean dry rag.

What "protective coating"?
Every few months I rip off every key and soak those in soapy water, then I take a brush to the board and scrub away.
Put the keys into a basin of soapy water, dishwasher, whatever.
You can pop them off really easily. You could do it with your hand, but that can sometimes be tough. Wedging and yanking with a screwdriver is easy and satisfying. Sometimes I am able to get keys to fly off at terrific speeds up to five feet.
I take it poping they keys off doesn't do any harm?
shower and use shampoo
