Germophobes Rejoice: Antibacterial Keyboard Skins For Macs
An iSkin ProTouch "Vibes" keyboard cover
iSkin just launched a new line of silicone keyboard covers treated with Microban, a secret germ-fighting sauce adding in during the manufacturing process.
Whether you believe in the germ-fighting power of the additive or not, keeping a skin on your keyboard will certainly keep the falling crumbs from your breakfast and bits of ick from settling in — since most office workers are exposed to more germs from their keyboards than toilet seats.
Plus, you can wash it with warm, soapy water.
The new line covers external keyboards and laptop models, prices range from $24.99 – $34.99.
Not sure I would’ve sprung for a keyboard condom in the past, but the amount of grit that never seems to come out of a keyboard plus paranoia over swine flu makes it seem like a small price to pay.
