Most keyboards simply don't wash well, membranes or not - I've found

and the case shell on this 'ere Model M and give everything a good
clean; the wife's machine has some modern Logitech Sponge-O-Matic thing
that doesn't look like it'll come apart easily (but then as it's modern
junk it'll probably break long before it needs a clean ;-)


Yep, I have two Model Ms to clean this week. They have both been in daily
use since 1992, and cleaned every few years....!
