You would think that if someone saw what cigarette smoking does to a
person's lungs, what effect it would have on some of the devices in a
computer...
Sorry, I couldn't resist.

contract lung cancer. Of those, 160,000 would die from cancer. Sobering
statistics.

Hi all!!
I've got a friend runs a company that provides computer systems and sets-up
networks for small businesses, who asked me if I knew of anything
documented
about cigarette smoke damaging computers.
He said that he sees problems all the time that he can relate to cigarette
smoke damage. For instance; the tar and nicotine sticks to everything which
attracts dust and contaminates to the insides, not to much of a problem on
the boards, but the optical drives get hammered. He'd like to be able to
show
something documented instead of just him saying it, and asked if I knew of
anything documented...I'm gonna search at lunchtime, but I thought I'd also
ask the experts...
Thanks!
