Cleaning Powerbook Keyboard
Posted by: Anonymous on 2026-05-05 08:42:10
Per the title, I have a 160 that I'm restoring. Is there a way to pull off the keycaps so as to clean under them? Just checking so I don't potentially break something. Thanks!

Gently pry them off using a wooden or plastic spatula. The keys are relatively robust. The only one I don't recall having removed (and reset later) is the space bar.
