Hi all,

  Another thing that I haven't seen mentioned... if you buy
a decent keyboard, and don't want to worry about this, get
one of the custom made covers such as SafeSkin.  They're
extremely unobtrusive, yet offer good protection against
dirt, debris, your kid's Kool Aid, etc.
  I've had them on both my previous system (Gateway) and my
current system (Austin P90), and am very satisfied.  Also have
one on my keyboard at work.
  Lots cheaper than a dishwaser, although I suppose you could
pick up a cheap replacement keyboard for about the same money.
I just prefer to keep the higher quality keyboard working for
as long as reasonable, also cuts down on generating extra
landfill just because I lost motor control temporarily and 
sloshed my coffee into the keyboard...

   Walt
