A friend of mine asked me to take a look at her computer. She said the computer was unusually "quiet" and would reboot itself on occasion. I surmised correctly that the fan on her power supply was faulty. She was a chain smoker and apparently smoked a lot while working on the computer; not only was the power supply fan gummed up with revolting tar and nicotine, but the CPU's cooling fan was clogged beyond use, and the cdrom drive drawer would not open. This is the only computer I have ever worked on that died from smoking.

My computer keyboard drinks a lot of coffee, at least it does when I keep spilling it all the time.

I had to clean the keyboard on my 5 year olds computer the other day.
God was that a mess, you couldn't see the letters on half of the keys because they were covered in who knows what, a combination of sneeze juice and whatever would stick to it, fruit juice and breakfast cereal, biscuits and bread.
Then there was the bits of fluff, paper, crayons and anything else they managed to stuff between the keys and yet after all that the thing still works.

My company provides Tech Support and Technical / Repair services for many POS systems at Large Corps... You should see what comes back from places like Chipotle Mexican Grill, McDonalds, Long John Silvers (ugggh!!!) or KFC... I have seen POS systems (and the back of house server) die from too much GREASE (clogged arteries???)
And the smell of ancient rancid grease...
We find dead insects of all types and occasionally a dead mouse in each POS... places where you would assume it would not be possible for a mous to go...
Bob Evans is the worst...
