I remember reading this on the classic computer list
FAQ, but wasn't sure if i should actually try it on a
keyboard i care about.  What about heat?  My dishwasher
has melted stuff with ease.  What about components
corroding inside the keyboard before drying (assuming i
shut off "heated" drying).  At the least i'd loose the
paper label....

Has anyone here done this with good results on an old
PS/2 SGI keyboard or a Sun Type 5?
