You shouldn't be eating near the PC then lol..... Mayo aint that bad though. I poored a can of coke over meh keyboard. It was wrecked, and all the keys were sticky aswell.

/me tells Madi to go and get a cloth

I poured beer in my keyboard once, made it smell quite nice for a bit, but it never worked the same again.

So i got two bricks and jumped on it till it was properly broken. lots of fun, and there were keys flying all over the place :)

Keybaords mix with food a lot better than with liqiud.

Once met a person that sprayed so much of the keyboard cleaner on her keyboard it had to be poured out :D

I got a cup of tea down mine the other day, stain all over it, Pulled the keys out, hung it out to dry for a day, got the Jif / Cif cream out on it (Works wonders) and its as good as new

I got red bull on the number pad of my old keyboard

I couldn't move any of the keys in it from then on

Stuff is glue when it dries :(

spilt beer on my ex companies lap top... was an insurance job... Ironically I got drunk the night before and left a half empty bottle next to it.. In the morning I went to get somethinga nd accidently knocked it over - I think my manager didn';t believe that

Why do i go to the trouble of jif cream and removing all the keys?
Simple, I like this keyboard, its solid, reliable and doesn't **** up.
I'm also not gonna get a 50 quid replacement (Yes, thats how much a cherry tactile keyboard is last time i looked) just cos its dirty.
This keyboard has outlived about 5 cheap keyboards on other systems which don't have half the usage of my cherry.

What brand is that monk?

Yeh, i get used to the resistance from a tactile keyboard, everybody who uses the cheap £5 keyboards / big piles of hot steamy poo type keyboards wonder why i bash the keys so hard on them.
