Since we're already speaking of Motion Sensors...

[Jeff Wooding]

That's to funny the old Mac keyboards (full size white with number pads)
can be cleaned the same way! when done they look brand new. I prefer these
over the small flat ones. Never thought that would work for those boards I
assumed they were shorting out but it is probably corrosion bridging
circuits. Good Save!

Thanks,
Jeff
