Anyone know how to remove skin oil on a PB keyboard, palmrest, and trackpad? I've heard using alcohol is a bad idea, but I don't know what else to use...suggestions?

I have found that simply a damp clean cotton cloth will do the trick. I use this to clean my entire Powerbook including the screen.

I use Kensington's "Cleaning Wipes".
They come in a small plastic dispenser and feel like the things you get at a greasy chicken joint! They are anti-static and cost about $5 for 60. #50794, available at any CompUSA or Staples.

BRILLIANIZE is the way to go. Its a cleaning product that is very cheap. You can get it at most hardware warehouses. It will actual protect your screen, and not eat away at the plastic (as windex is sometimes known to do) It leaves a pleasant sheen on your PB, takes away oils, and makes the trackpad silky smooth. I also reccomend purchasing DUST OFF, its compressed air that does a great job of removing dirt and dust from those hard to reach areas, you can find it at most photo shops.

Wow, thanks for the tips.
I guess I'll throw my two cents in and recommend Kleer Screen from Meridrew Enterprises for screen cleaning. I've found it doesn't work that well to remove oils and such from the rest of the 'Book but does an admirable job on the screen.
