Wouldn’t surprise me a bit.

Horror story of the day:

I had to move a computer today and start cleaning it off and preparing it for another worker. I took one look at the keyboard and decided that I just spend the day cleaning it off. It was absolutely disgusting, caked on with dirt, crumbs all in the board, etc. If it had been a stock keyboard, I would have thrown it away, but it’s got some custom stuff on it that’s useful.

Gah. I had to pop each and every key off and clean each key *and* underneath *and* blow it out with compressed air constantly.

Horror story time..
We had some traveling Salesman drop into our office in Indy a few years ago..He was passing through and his laptop needed repair..So it was an emergency for him..The closest IT guy is in Chicago..He walks in the office..Now mind you..I’m a system Admin..All I care about is Cisco Switches, Routers and Various Firewalls infrastructure..
He opens his laptop and it is full of Cat hair and just totally disgusting..
His cat liked to sleep on it at night..It was warm..
I laughed out loud…Guess what I told him?
/Never clean keyboards..throw them away
