Title: Keyboard turned into dust
Post by: PowerPC on Fri, 14 March 2014, 16:52:23

About one year ago, I think, I saw an image of a keyboard that was left alone for a while, and when its owner got back the case had disintegrated into dust.

Does anyone know about it?

How long is "a while"?

And what sort of environment was the keyboard in (corrosive dust, heavy air pollution etc.)?
