I just cleaned mine a week ago, pretty disgusting. I actually had a hard time putting all the keys back :/

Last time I attempted this I managed to completely screw up the space bar, with the result I ended up getting a new keyboard soon after. Since then I haven't bothered.

You must take incredibly good care of your keyboard, mine after 4 years looked pretty battered to say the least, and for 4 years of use it looks ridiculously clean inside. I guess you never eat at your computer or anything like that.

Gj quiri, I did this couple months back :D btw, isn't it hard to use location hotkeys for you since your F-keys are so tiny?
I tried once a keyboard with such small f-keys but had to get rid of it.

Thanks. Since it was my first time actually removing the keys, I was hoping I don't screw something up, since I really like the keyboard.

Yeah, I usually don't eat much at my computer, and when I do, I have a plate over which I eat.

One of the reasons I love is that this keyboard is becouse it's small, so I have almost everything close to my grasp. Bigger keyboards have more space between the f keys and the numbers, so you have to reach higher to press them (and that means more time!). Since they're at the top of the keyboard, you press them with your fingertips - so their size doesn't play a role.

It's actually very annoying when I try to play somewhere else.



I'm still wondering if anyone got the Start spoiler joke? :D

Haha a friend of mine poured beer all over his keyboard on a party and after he had cleaned it he randomly put all his keys back into the keyboard. Now he's forced to type without looking at the keyboard. That's a good way to learn how to type properly.

When you'd rather spend 12 dollars, it makes me wonder what condition your keyboard is actually in that would convince you out of cleaning it...

It's a long process to clean it... I'd guess over an hour. It's not that dirty... :O

it should be 30min tops

More. 1-2 hrs. Had to clean each key, then the base. The problem is that it's hard to reach some spots.

Well, I wasn't really trying to be fast, but I didn't do it thoroughly either...

I note that that does not appears to be a QWERTY keyboard and so I assume Dvorak, though I really don't know.

I also note that there appear to be additional symbols besides the Roman alphabet on each key - from experience with Korean keyboards and that "Croatia" location, I'd guess it's Cyrillic?

I have no idea what the Start spoiler was about.
