    The keyboard doesn't look to be easily removable. I guess the only way to clean it would be to use compressed air and spray it between the keys, hoping that it will blow away the dust stuck underneath.

    Turn it upside down and shake it out. Not too hard, though. And make sure its off. I use a little handheld vacuum to get the rest out. Also you could try a toothbrush to get in the small cracks.

    I have a air compressor and I bought a $10 air gun for it. Puts out about 90PSI
    Unlimited compressed air!!
    Just a thought for people with air compressors.
