Logitech Deluxe 560 Cordless Desktop, changed batteries last night which last for 7 months and I should clean it soon. I just love it, there's cables and it's still in one piece after all those hitting and punching 
Mostly, when you see programmers, they aren't doing anything. One of the attractive things about programmers is that you cannot tell whether or not they are working simply by looking at them. Very often they're sitting there seemingly drinking coffee and gossiping, or just staring into space. What the programmer is trying to do is get a handle on all the individual and unrelated ideas that are scampering around in his head. (Charles M Strauss)

I recently was fairly shocked to discover that I go through about ane keyboard each year - and these aren't usually the cheap ones.

I had bad luck with the two last keyboards I bought - the good one I drowned in a cup of water, and the other was one of the "new consumer type" keyboards that was worn out after two months.
Since I wasn't completely happy with all that new fangled stufdf anyway, I went back to the roots[^]. The only thing I actually miss is volume control - other than that, the "100% standard layout" and the distinct pressure point are exactly what I need.

Shouldn't he have subscription? Perhaps with quarterly updates?

At home about once every 3 to 5 years. Probably longer at work (being that we have a box in the development room with 25 to 50 recycled keyboards) but sometimes I will include one in a computer purchase as I build all the departments machines. The last one I got was a microsoft keyboard and optical mouse bundle for around $20US total at newegg.

I know its time to clean my Microsoft Keyboard when it turns pale from the usual squeaky white. I sometimes use spirit or diluted kerosene with cotton to clean up. Its difficult to get to cleaning, but believe me the satisfaction you get once its clean, is worth it.

.... when my keyboard requires cleaning. They are so cheap nowadays (not talking about keyboards like Logitech diNovo Edge[^]) that imho its cheaper to buy a new keyboard instead of cleaner

Nice to see that ecological considerations haven't permeated into the world of the computer nerd yet!

...That you can actually put your keyboard in a dishwasher so long as you don't use any soap (or sanitize cycle or anything like that that would melt the plastic), and then leave it out to dry upside down for a few days at least. I'm not exactly sure where I heard this, but is this madness or is it OK to do? What do you guys think?
P.S. I've never tried this, and do so at your own risk.
