The worst I've ever seen was a rig I had to service that was in a rock quarry. Thre was so much rock dust in it I had to (I kid you not) take it outside and dump out the rock dust. I would say there was about a good 5oz of dust that got dumped. I still took a can of air and blew the thing out. What a mess.

While working at SubWay the computer kept crashing. The IT guy cam in and opened the computer up. Literally it was half filled with dust and dirt. Literally.


He was so discussed he took pictures and emailed them to his boss and proceded to bitch at the manager.

I got an old gaming rig (like a 2002) from a friend for free, his dad was gonna throw it away but it still worked (just wanted the case anyways).. His dad had it for 10 years, didn't clean house or anything, heavy smoker..there was 4 inches of dust from the bottom and all 6 fans looked about like this
