As much as I hate Dell's hardware, PSU's in particular, I can't fault their peripherals. My monitor is still soldiering on after nearly 5-6 years of service and the keyboard has taken such a battering that the WASD keys are faded to the point of blankness. That's what gaming does to keyboards, punishes them. WASD in particular.

So what awaits me when I pop the keys off one by one to see what half a decade of non-cleaning will reveal?

What is this, do I have a hamster living under my keys? What is that in there? I recognise those, they might be Doritos from last...decade. Closer inspection:

No not a hamster, I think I have a cat living in my keyboard. That is only half the cat hair, the rest flew off in the wind as I took it outside. I also dread to think how much has made it into the other electrical devices in the house.

So next time you put those fingers on your keys, have a think about what's under there. Lift it above your head, give it a little shake...

(Reckon any will fall for that?)

Clean again, provided I ban the cats from the room.
