  this might be something tt most ppl dun bother or overlooked
  the keyboard is the thing u are in most contact with when using the computer.....and to maintain it's performance and oso hygiene, users shd take care of it and make sure it's properly cleaned and rid of dust and particles tt may accumulate and spoil your typing experience...
  whether your keyboard is $20 cheapo kind or the $100 logitech wireless kind....it's good that you practise cleaning the keyboard
