You're so dirty

Lol, that's nothing compared to an old cisco 4000 router I pulled from site once :D
 
lol, Next time I open one of the factory or cnc pc's I'll upload some photos.

Worst one was so bad the cpu fan was completely surrounded with dust, just a tiny bit of space where the airflow prevented it from settling to much.
 
I should upload the one picture I have of the server that stopped working. When the case was opened there was a mouse fused to the board, it's feet were roasted onto the components of the m/board. Nasty.
 
LOL :)

Our CnC machines use oil as cooling when cutting metal, there are also various grinders and engravers in the room.
The resultant mess (oil then dust then oil then dust) that hit's the pc's is pretty nasty, I have however found that at least the oil is non conductive so I leave it till it gets to bad then empty a bottle of contact cleaner over the components.
 
Did a call out to a client in Sandton area few years back. Took one look at the ladies workstation and refused to stand anywhere close to it. Her workspace deserved to be on a talk show, absolutely disgusting! Got her to to install VNC and worked from her colleagues PC.
