    A few question for Z owners.

    1. Does anyone use a screen protector or full body kit protector for their Z? Is worth it?

    2. How do you clean your keyboard? E.g. Windex, alcohol or other wipes..

    3. If you do not have a screen protector, what do you use to clean the screen?

    4. Any other tips?

    Thank you, sorry if this asked been asked before!

    Nothing of the above. When the screen gets too filthy I might sweep it with my hand ;)

    Just the screen protector...and I toss it around in my bag quite often.
    I never had any issues with the Z though surprisingly...

    All I do is wipe off the dust once in a while.

    I use the cloth that came with the Z2. I place it between the keyboard and the screen when I put the laptop in a bag. And when needed, I wipe the screen, the palmrest and the keyboard with it. I think it's quite handy.

    I look about the same as I did before my Vaio Z.
    (sorry, couldn't resist!)

    Dust is the main thing - microfiber cloth lightly sprayed with anti static spray available widely. Have lid and palm rests protected with SGP skins - ugly, but keep it nice for next owner. :D
