What the hell are people bothering cleaning a mbd with soapy water?

Really, just blowing off the worst of the dust is all that's required,

I was referring to cleaning much more up market electronics than PC's,

Is there _anything_ more upmarket than PCs?

There is plenty of stuff that is more over priced than PCs.
I keep getting junk mail from bose and that is seriously over priced.

I used to work with kit that had 20 inch square cards that cost about $1m
each, they were all washed with water.
It was best to make sure the lasers were dry as they could suffer a steam
explosion (or worse) if there was water in the way.
