Totally forgot about the *gets hot and so would overheat without proper airflow* running parts part. Memory now is about putting those on after the computer was shut down at night.. So... what about a simple, square homemade wood framed screen contraction that would capture *some* of the dust? Making one that was two-layered would *hopefully* *theoretically* *potentially* catch more dust, etc., as the catchables bounce around between the layers. Presumably a simple screened box would be light enough to lift off as needed, e.g. to hit the power off button. Simple hinge plus hook-and-eye operated trap doors could be added if the computer was situated on a shelf that makes it inconvenient to lift a box off easily. The waterproof keyboard option would help for the part outside the box. Never thought about similar for the mouse, but they sure do collect their share of gunk inside, too. Just offering as a potential temporary solution until something perfect comes along. Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed *

What do you say? For the computer it is like 1x/year regards

You might look at Chromebooks. They can be found for tablet prices, and all of them can easily run Debian in a tab within ChromeOS using Crouton. (Also Ubuntu.) Setup for me took under 30 minutes. You can even have separate sandboxed (chrooted) instances of Debian and/or Ubuntu for different purposes. You could even simultaneously run Android, ChromeOS, and Debian applications. -- Carl Fink nitpicking@nitpicking.com Read John Grant's book, Corrupted Science: http://a.co/9UsUoGu Dedicated to ...
