So they use pc as vacuum cleaner?

as usual, in some offices people just don't give a f** as long as their pc running
dead dvd rw, dust everywhere, sloppy installation

That's OG cable management at it's best. I'm guessing that red SATA cable got wrapped around a pencil

Yah, gross!

I would say in most offices. According to my experiences, the smaller the company, the more they care about such "trivial" issues. Usually private micro companies will care much more than medium or big ones.

I believe that is a Zalman design.

What's with the anrdoezrs.net linking in the headers of those links? Not cool man..

It's automatically added to the newegg links, so W1zz can make a buck or two if people buy these products when they clicked the link from TPU.

That's actually a referral deal with TPU. W1zz setup a deal with them for click-revenue, I believe

not the poster's fault :toast:

Ah, ok. Shutting up.. :peace:

Sorry about that. You can understand how that might have looked slightly "iffy".

Using the laptop as a vacuum cleaner? Seen it myself, try to tell people to elevate the intake fan so it's not sucking in everything.

People rarely listen to any recommendations. No one wants to give up the comfort of laying on a sofa, using their cat as a laptop stand )))
They'd rather pay me a visit once every few months and pay a few bucks for cleaning and general maintenance, which I don't really mind.

phill · Mar 22, 2019

Gotta love laptops.. The ones you can't even take apart are even better... Wonder how you're meant to clean them??....

Compressed air(from a tank not a can) and a vacuum.

You're not.
You toss and replace by intended design...... Or pay someone (Authorized dealer) to do it.

xtreemchaos · Mar 22, 2019
