Ugh. Yes. When I was restoring my Prophet 2K after getting it I discovered cat hair everywhere inside it - even under the keyboard contact strip. That stuff tends to stick to pretty much anything via the magic of static electricity. (Actually, some of it was stuck down via the magic of coca-cola, but that's another issue again...)

Eumhh, yeah, thanx for that appetizing piece of trivia. I'll remember to leave my birthdaysuit on a hanger in the hallway before entering the house in the future. :roll: Guess now I know why Mini uses his latex gloves in those clips. :wink: Meanwhile, are there any further suggestions?

My cat threw up on my console's PSU the other day. Not in a seam, luckily.
