    Hey all,

    Are there any good products / companies that supply a keyboard protector for the M17x R3? Recenlty got my replacement system from AW and dont want it to get dirty like my old m15x r3 that I had for 2 and half years.

    A lot of dust and crap would sneak into the keyboard area and really get me cheesed off. Id just prefer to stop the dirt/dust getting in the first place than cleaning it out with compressed air can ¬¬`

    Something in the UK or that ships to the UK would help =-P

    That cyber clean thing looks creepily awesome, reminds me of Nickelodeon "gack" back in the 90s.


    I may order some.

    the cyberclean or the laptop? to use cyberclean you just squish it and roll it, dirt + crap sticks to it.

    if your talking about how do u clean the cyberclean, i'm guessing you dont... its like a clay bar for cars, once its clogged up with crap you toss it and buy a new one.
