White keyboards after Labor Day

Apple's design is the envy of the computer industry, but I really have to wonder about the sense of making keyboards and mice white.

No matter how clean you keep your hands, white keyboards and mice inevitably attract discoloration. Admittedly it's a lot worse if you keep your hands buried in a bag of Cheetos in between mouse clicks, but still, through normal day-to-day use, your mouse and keyboard will get positively scrungy-looking after a few months.

The black keyboards are just as cheeto-dustedly filthy, but you may not see it. I'm assuming this is Steve Jobs' way of saying we should all wash our hands more often.

I like the new color of your site, except that the dark color shows off the fingerprints on my monitor...
