Apple White Keyboard question...

I pulled this outta the trash at my school. The ZAQ keys are dead. It looks like coffee, any fix? My cheapy Logitech Classic 200 is getting old.

Wash the keyboard with a hose.

It sounds stupid, but I've done this before with no problems.

I know, I just rinsed it with my kitchen sink spray thingy. Now its drying. Its the same concept as the leaky cap thing right?

Yeah.

You HAVE to be patient with drying though. Personally, I waited a week before I even tried hooking it up.

Definitely, I'll leave it for a while, I have nothing to lose... If it doesn't work It makes a nice addition to my parts bin or for a project :rambo:

If you have a black apple keyboard you can swap keys and go for a nice checkered appeal.
