I had a computer go down last week. Turns out that the power supply
was clogged with dust and needed to be replaced. It was probably
under powered too, which added to its demise. Talking to some
friends, this has happened to two more people in the last 3 months. All of
them multi monitor machines running some big apps. Regular
computers did not seem to suffer from the same type of problem.


Any input from you guys would be appreciated.


How much dirt you have in your computer depends on the environment. Some of
my customers have so much dust inside the box, that, upon seeing the cloud
of white smoke generated by the exhaust from the Hoover, you'd think the
computer just elected a new Pope.
