If you can take the guts out of the computer conveniently, you can wash
and scrub the parts with soft scrub. The yellow gunk from cigarette smoke
DOES come off. (and as I pointed out to the smoker friend who sold me my
first GS, if your computer looks like this, imagine your lungs).
My GS still smells a bit of cigarette smoke - it's gotten into the power
supply and is still on the main board, and when things get warm it smells.
Still, it's cleaner and nicer than it was.
