Why you should clean your pc....

If only I got a picture of our old servers at work, I'm almost certain thats why they died :D .
 
That's pretty much what the 7 year old computers at a shop I worked at looked like. It was horrible cleaning them out and probably took a good few years off my life with all the crap I inhaled. That sticky brown gunk is apparently from smoking around them. Just shows what happens to your lungs.
 
I had used to do some IT consultancy for a local pottery manufacturer, the PC on the link looks clean compared to some on the shop floor mmmmm clay dust :D

Time for the Airduster on that one, Stand back :eek:
 
i love the pic where a mouse has made a den inside the pc, the owner realised something was up when he couldn't turn it on anymore -the mouse had chewed through the power-on switch cable :D
 
I once agreed to have a look at a home PC for somebody at work, his wife used it in the main and she was a smoker, brown and yellow stuff inside is all I can recall, she must have blown all her fag smoke straight into the front fan or she used the PC in a non ventilated box :(
 
I was thinking maybe the nicotine kills off any dust mites that may want to inhabit your PC, but I'm only looking for an excuse as I'm a smoker :(

Dirty habit that makes mess of your PC and anything else it comes into contact with.

Would kill the greenfly though if you had any.
 
I work in a fabrication company with gougers and welders and we have a few machines on the shopfloor. They all look like that within a year unless I clean them out.

The ones in the offices don;t fair much better. A good half a cm of dust per year builds up in them.
 
Yuck........Id love to lick that dust off though! and whatever else is there........within the dust that is..........
 
Ick.. I opened my neighbours dead pc the other night, not quite that bad but i did find it hard to breathe for about 12 hours after a lungful. At least i found the cause once i hoovered the sucker
 
I have seen some pretty disgusting computers in my time, normally it a case of taking them out the the garage, lid off, thenout the the air compressor. Usually gets most of the crap out...
 
2 in every 3 PCs that come into me aren't too far off that. One I had one a couple of weeks ago that had a dog-end caught in the fan. The bloke wondered what the noise was.
 
imagine opening up a case only to find youve created some form of life out of all the dust dirt etc. *cowers*.

the worst my pc got is a dust ball and looked like a tumbleweed with the fans going.
