Who's got one of these keyboards?

[Ethel]

Looks absolutely fabby - but can anyone tell me exactly where all those biscuit crumbs in amongst my keys come from, please?

(I've tried one and they are really really weird to use though!!)

[sara3]

wow, that's clever! I have a little USB vacuum cleaner for my keyboard :o)

[Ethel]

I've seen them, chuck!

I do like the idea of putting my mouse and keyboard in the dishwasher - they do get grimy. I can't understand where all the chocolate and biscuit crumbs come from - I live alone.

[ChuckFickens]

I suggest you cut down on the chocolate and biscuits then, that can be the only answer if you live alone surely ;)

[Ethel]

No, Chuck, tis not me. I open a packet, have one, and next time I go to have one, they've all gone.

Same with sweeties.

I would have thought that was a crazy waste of money gizmo until I spent time retreiving keys from our hoover bag!.......never did find the R...........anyone got a spare R for an Inspiron 6000?

[Ethel]

Yours for one whole British pound

Arrrrhhhh

[ailie]

OOOOH Ethel can I buy you biscuits?

[ChuckFickens]

careful putting it on, the little plastic frames underneath the actual key are easy to break.

[ailie]

will do Chu. I proved the point that anyone who would do that was definately one key short of the full keyboard

[Ethel]

I keep having to pop my keys off to degunge underneath.

It's all very well turning a normal keyboard upside down to give it a good shake - perhaps not such a good idea to do that to a laptop.

I see they do remote controls that can go in the dishwasher - they must be grubby things indeed. I've seen men watching tv :(

That's a little sexist Ethel, wasn't it you that gets chocolate and biscuit crumbs all over your keyboard? : 0 )

[terambulan]

[Ethel]
