Alcohol.  Specifically isopropyl or rubbing alcohol (I assume vodka
would work, but I have better things to do with it:-).  Works great on
the goop that collects on the keyboard.

You can get screen-cleaning wipes with some anti-static goop for the
display, which mainly attracts dust.

DO NOT!!! use spray cleaners!  If you feel the urge to use something
like Windex, spray it onto a paper towel first, and be careful where
you rub it.  Otherwise you risk getting potentially corrosive liquid
into the insides of your machine.

Freon spray would be ok for your hardware, but it's bad for the ozone
layer.
