[Cialug] OT: Cleaning electronics

[Dan Sloan]

The biggest issue you're likely to run into is the tar accummulation on the
inside.  Anyplace there is consistent airflow will probably be sticky.  Find
a good component cleaner Q-tips, and expect that it will take a while.
Note: wear chem resistant gloves, and use a well ventilated area.
