Rub Gook off using hard pressure, then remove the gook off with alcohol or iKlear, or whatever watered down cleaner you prefer.

I dont like the keyboard material apple puts in on the macbook pros.

It is dry and with a gentle rubbing will clean the keyboard.be gentle, and it will clean it.

You want a keyboard that will last you have to use a old hard core external keyboard.

I find a few here and there and buy them cheap, beat the out of them, drop them etc and they take a licking and keep on ticking.

My entire keyboard surface of the MBP is covered by the original packaging, not after my last 15 turned into a scratched mess.

Ive had a keyboard protector on my MBP since the moment I took it out of its original packaging two and a half years ago.

Ive literally never touched a key on it, nor has anyone else except whoever assembled it at the factory.

The assembler left fingerprints on three or four of the keys, and nothing Ive ever tried an assortment similar to the one you list has successfully removed those prints.

Ads showing shiny new clean keyboards dont actually exist in the real world unless you never type on it or buy a really good keyboard cover.

We know how effective that is on the keycaps, dont we Youre just going to have to live with it.

You think thats bad OS X 10.5, a mere 4 year old OS, doesnt get any security or stability updates.

Apple only supports the last two operating system versions in circulation.

Your running 10.5, you need to remove your Diginotar Root Certificates, you could validate a hostile site as legitiment.

If your on 10.6.8 then your safe, 10.6 offers a lot of speed (video) improvements on your Intel Mac, however I would go only as far as 10.6.8 so all your softwareexternal hardware runs.

Apple will eventually cut off your 10.6 disk copies like they did for 10.5 and earlier.

So not only does a lot of Apple hardware have planned obsolence in them, so does the operating system.

On the other hand Microsoft supports 10 year old XP still, Vista 6 years and thus Win 7 easily 10 years.

If you can make your Win 7 hardware last 10 years, keep copies of your software, then your set, no need to buy anything for 10 years and you get security updates and anti-virus too free.

If you want cutting edge, then your going to pay (and change and change and change) with Apple.

Mountain Lion is coming out this summer, a year after Lion 10.7.

Hope the new critter doesnt go the way of Win8, cause the interface there is truly a blocky awful mess.

Yea its ugly, apparantly one Mac user who tried it liked it.

I have had this problem where no matter how clean my hands are, and using isoprophil alchohol or iKlear, it still doesnt remove the oil residue off the keyboard or alluminum unibody.

So what i did was dampen a cloth with gook off, which is an oil or sticky residue remover.

This actually made it greasier, but after rubbing my Pro with Gook off and then cleaning off the Gook off with alcohol, the residue was gone I do this every so often when the keyboard gets shiny or I see oil residue below the keyboard where my palms rest.
