The worst I have had was a VCR where the dog had urinated in it. I got it to look at a month or so later when it was too late.
The pee had eaten through the legs of a number of chips and the smell was horrible!
Similarly a laptop suffering from the same problem when the lid was left open and the cat used it as a litter tray!
Too late again to fix it - as before green growths around the chips and legs and print eaten away.
The worst dust problem I came across was at a University I worked at. We maintained the PCs around the campus. It was not uncommon to find some 20mm of thick dust blanketing the motherboards in the engineering computer labs.
