Just touching an Apple keyboard gives it a slight grease, despite regular cleaning. You don't get that on other keyboards, as they are textured slightly to prevent it.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoThis isn't true; I've actually done some anecdotal AB testing on this. My wife cleans her Macbook keyboards regularly and it's always non-greasy to my touch, they always feel new. I on the other hand, am less diligent, and I can tell.
- StudentStuff 9y agoCompare it to a Corsair keyboard or a Thinkpad keyboard, you can get that new feeling much longer in between cleaning. Additionally, your wife may have drier skin, meaning less or no grease.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoExcept we both use the same computers, so I expect it goes beyond user just to habit.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoAlso, the texture doesn't make the keyboard cleaner, it just makes it feel less greasy when dirty. That isn't considered a good thing to many people who are more likely to fit into Apple user demographics.
