 === ------------VERY LOW TECH TIP----------------
 
 === Since most of the machines here rarely use
 the floppy drive, I've taken to sticking a piece
 of cloth over the floppy with masking tape. Works
 as a cheap filter. I also do the same for the
 vents in the front of the box. A piece of
 T-shirt works fine.
 
 === Beats opening the box and vacuuming the dust
 inside.
 
 === WARNING: These filters should be changed
 every little while, as they eventually clog up.
 You'll see the crud that was saved from entering
 the box.  Simply replace with a new cloth.
 
 
 === Cheers from Phil, Low Tech Expert
