I've tried searching the net and couldn't find out.

As the title says: Are the keys for the Microsoft Sidewinder x4 Keyboard safely detachable? If so, then how?
There's a couple crumbs underneath and my OCD is slapping me over it. I don't want to ruin the keyboard. :\
 


If you want to get rid of the crumbs try using some air spray.
 
personally i'd suggest getting a unicomp customizer mechanical keyboard. the keys are super easy to remove and it includes a drip tray so that those crumbs do not get into places where they shouldnt!

the keycaps can be removed then you can vac around the keys. or blow it out.

if that doesnt work you can remove the stems as well so you can q-tip and clean it out good with rubbing alcohol or however you want to if it needs in depth cleaning.

perhaps the most resilent keyboard other than the rubber ones which are crap to type on.
