Who knows what all those ipods, itouches, and iphones could possibly do to you? Anyway, I guess we will start seeing commercials by attorneys to collect people as clients who have had extensive exposure to apple computers such as Newspapers, Marketing departments of business.musical developers, Teachers where apples were used in schools, and maybe even students who were long time users of apples while in school or at home. Even apple employees could be included in this. I had four macs. Three have since been disassembled, but I still have the imac intact. To be honest it might have far reaching effects for the whole industry much less apple.

Anyway I have had my share of collected used computers that were smoke filed. I end up airing them out in the garage till they are livable to be around.

I would imagine that the plastics would have melted in that respect.
