I gotta side with Apple. I dread fixing my mother's computer.. it sits there in the dustiest corner of her house while she breathes smoke into it every ten seconds.
Dust + smoke + pet hair = horrifying mess that no one should have to deal with.
I don't even try and clean her fans, I just replace them. It's terrible. The crud forms a layer on everything in the path of the air flow. Oh and it's not like normal dust.. it's stickier and black. So disgusting. I keep having the recurring fear that it's some kind of mold that's going to get in my lungs and kill me slow.
And then it makes my apartment smell like an ashtray when you turn it on. I hate it. If it was anyone other than Mi Madre I wouldn't even try to do the work.
Treating your computer like that much crap should (and apparently now, can) void any warranties.
And just to be clear I'm talking about really really funky ass PC's.. Thinking about now, do we really trust Apple to be able to make intelligent distinctions? (app store approval?)
