Reader reply – The two biggest Computer killers
After my article from yesterday “The two biggest Computer killers” i received an email from a reader. He keeps his iMac clean by wiping down the glass panel and the top of his computer, he keeps his desk clear and thought it was enough. As he does smoke and has carpet throughout the house (huge source of dust) he decided to inspect his iMac and this is what he found:
He was shocked at what he found and now that he is aware he will clean his computer regularly. It took just a few minutes to clean this up and he may have just prolonged the iMac’s lifespan by years.
This is great news, the website did exactly what it is meant to do; create awareness 🙂 Have any photos of your computer before and after cleaning, feel free to let me know! And thank you Renee for the email.
Wow! That is a lot of dust! I need to check my office now lol
Doing the office and shop computers like this has always been a monthly thing with me. The first time I made them do it, they looked at me like I had three heads. Also the first time, the computers were disgusting. Now a couple of them do it at home as well.
The accumulated dust looks so scary! I am so glad I have purchase a dust cover to slip on my iMac “27 when not in use. It was purchased 2 years ago in Amazon and it’s very effective in repelling dust and moisture too because it’s water resistant. Save myself from the hurdles of cleaning pile of filth and it’s a wise investment for me in the long run.
