Date: Sun 10-Jul-1989 19:51:52 From: Unknown Subject: Cleaning the Optical Drive? Jeez! My optical drive is full o' dust. Is anyone aware of the correct method of cleaning the *inside* of the drive? I have cleaned my disks repeatedly with no significant improvement with respect to failures. Argh! Does anyone else have similar dust problems? My home is not particularly dusty so I don't think it is that. Also, I heard that in future releases, the fan will blow in the opposite direction. What the hell am I supposed to do with my $10,000 dustbuster until then? (As a side note, my machine came with the fan totally unplugged! It was running for hours before I noticed that I didn't notice a fan!) Chris
