Get one made out of black plastic, and get to work with some fine-grit sandpaper.

Haha, when the spyware/adware writers get their heads around that it'll be interesting seeing a big blocky vagina on the keyboards instead of letters and numbers.

In fact the keys will probably spell out "Free Viagra just press enter" instead of QWERTYUIOP.

a friend of mine has been shaving the letters off his keys since the mid-90's.
it only takes about an hour... just remember to keep them in order if you pull them off, or you'll never get them back on where they belong again.

Aren't the majority of them interchangeable anyway?

you have to remember what row they came from.
the curvature of the letters is slightly different depending on what row they came from.
