Um, yuck. Once found a comp. with cigarette butts in it, was fixing it for a friend. Apparently the intake fan was close to an ashtray or somehting, pretty gross.

I guess the whole problem starts when you go to a LAN party or something like that. I've seen guys demonstrating their cfm rating by holding a cig in front of a suckhole and watching "their comp smoke" .
But again I've to say that it's not smoking alone, as you all said the guys that came up with such "dirty" pcs have pets, and especially cats are known for loosing alot of hair.. so even without smoking these guys should use filters
And again I've to mention "You need at least 100 posts..." *wuerg*

For those of you in the PC repair business, I would think you would applaud this sort of thing as it keeps your customers coming back
I think one of the cats jumped through the fan!

at first when he said something about a cat and a hsf i thought for sure that a cat had stuck its face or paws in and gotten mauled by a high rpm fan. i'm not sure if this is any less disgusting.
my friend took his laptop in for service recently and the guy opened it up to find enough hair to make a whole cat. they have 5 dogs, 3 cats, a mouse colony, ferrets and some sort of squirrel/chinchilla animals. and all of them shed. but it hasnt killed anything yet. their old computer is some kind of PI or 486, i'm gonna open it up next time i'm there and see what's inside (before he totally upgraded he was complaining of random reboots... hmm)
well this was an interesting thread, rock on

I hope you gave that guy some fan filters to keep all that crap out of there. Sheesh I have heard of cat kennels but that is ridiculous.
