One a year or so, I pull the printed circuit boards from my CPU and my
keyboard and run them through my dishwasher, using a minimal amount of
detergent, and absolutely avoiding the machine's dry cycle. I just let
the boards dry in the wind.

Living in New York City, and being a smoker, I do find quite a bit of
crud on the boards.
