This is my mom's computer; an old @$$ Pentium 2 slot processor machine. I was pretty disgusted and, honestly, almost threw up

so...
DO NOT DO THIS!!!!!!!!

It doesn't look like it's ever been cleaned out................

I've seen one or 2 that might have looked as bad, but not many.

Hey, my dad's old Gateway machine from '99 looked like that.

Well... not quite as bad. He gets a lot of hand-me-downs from me such as old hard drives, zip drives, video cards, network, modem, etc and that usually requires opening up the case and doing a little cleaning as well.

This is why I want a totally passive cooling system, no airflow issues and dust to worry about, kinda conflicts with my desire to get a high power gaming machine though, and I don't have the cash to get both.
