        Wow. And I go on a cleaning spree when I get some visible dust on my fan...

          Pfft. My brother in law's PC was worse. He has two German Shepards and poor housekeeping skills, so his old HP PC was half full of dog fur and dust. Disgusting. For a real treat, open up a PC from an office where someone has been smoking for years. Everything is covered in yellow tar.

            Oh come on. That's NOTHING! Try opening a case in the dark recesses of an engine casting plant. Black god-knows-what filling the entire case!

              I could have used one of those recently. I spent about an hour with a paper clip and got a handfull of dust out of the heat sink. I don't even want to know what the inside of my laptop looks like (actually, now that I think about it, I should probably make a project out of that this weekend).

                  Feel seasick now. Phones should disable video capture if they detect excessive movement as the results are unwatchable.

                    I've seen far, far worse. Used to work for a pallet network in its earlier days, and most of the depots were small, family run places where the 'office', if there was one at all, was a flimsy affair attached to the warehouse or garage. Filthy places with lorries and fork lift trucks running nearby for much of the day and great big doors open all the time.

                    Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                      Once worked in a auto part plant (in an office). My heat sink / cpu fan would file up once a month. I wonder what that did to my lungs.
