Easy cleaning question...

I have a fairly new Dell Notebook and don't know what to use to clean my screen of fingerprints and I guess the keyboard too... I have a dog and sometimes dog hairs float down b/t the keys, etc...
thanks,
deb

use a solution of diluted isopropyl alcohol, no more than a 50% solution. mix 1 part water and 1 part 90% isopropyl alcohol, which works out to something just under a 50% solution.
Be absolutely sure to use a very VERY soft cloth like a piece of soft flannel. Do NOT use paper towels or anything more abrasive than an old worn out cotton Tshirt. Absolutely do NOT use windex or anything with ammonia in it, it can etch the screen surface and can cause the plastic to go cloudy. You don't want that to happen!

Thank you!!!! I'll presume that solution will work OK on the keys and the other parts of the computer as well...
