Argh! My A1200 has rusted!
« on: May 08, 2007, 08:27:12 AM »
Well, that's what I get for leaving it in a box in the basement for so many years.  =(

Before I start messing with it and screw it up even worse, I figured I'd ask the experts.  What's the best way (or any way) to remove rust from around a computer's motherboard, incl. the little metal box that covers the RF output hardware?  :-?

Oh boy, I should take the motherboard out, stat.  Lemme see what's underneath...
