  'I opened up the case, and it looked like sticky-poop looking muck all over the PC – on top of the processor heat sink (just under the fan) was a layer of this muck. It's like smoke in a solid form. Canned air would not even dint this muck – a screwdriver was about the only thing to work. It finally started to make me sick that I told her it was fried and she needed a new PC – it was beyond fixable.'

  Lots of anecdotes to the effect of "smoking is also bad for your computer, too."
