I have a FP iMac with the white keyboard/mouse. A year's worth of crud - bread crumbs, peanut skins, foreskins, smegma, etc. has fallen through the keys and settled in the clear casing, where it is highly visible. Dust-Off just forces it deeper into the corners. Any suggestions? Has anyone taken one of these apart for cleaning?

I have often cleaned my pro keyboards with the hoover. Just use the brush attachment.
For more stubborn stuff just hold the keyboard upside down, shake it about etc.

For some reason my keyboards keep filling up with tobacho
