One weird find i had was from a 3 year old computer. When i opened it, i found nothing.. No dust anywhere, not on the fans, the case, mobo, nowhere. the computer still had the "new computer smell" turned out she bought the computer, put it in storage for a move, then forgot about it. 3 years later, she sets it up, and nothing, bad mobo. when we got the sucker powerd up, the windows was not even registered..
Warranty on it finished for it about 1 month before she brought it in. Needless to say we felt sorry for here and only charged her cost for the parts and no labour.

Where I work we had to interesting things... 1 PC was brought in for repair, and the bottom PCI slot had no cover. Apparently a ton of mice had been living in the PC (and had to poop a LOT!!)... The other weird one was we had 2 PCs come in and when we openned it up, it had so much dust and spider webs, we couldn't tell if it was even safe to TOUCH. It was so thick , it didn't even look like anything recognizable... I made my boss take care of it :)

I must admit I've never seen anything that dusty, but we did have a very large family of mice build a nest under our Gigabit Ethernet - ATM Bridge using the insulation from the cables as a major part of its structure. Took us weeks to clean it out properly and re-lay all the damaged cabling.
