I know that a lot of big cities are infested with them so I suppose a nice warm computer would  make rather a good hiding place.  I don't mind beetles but cockroaches give me the creeps.

Nope.  Can't stand anything that crunches underfoot.  In fact, I have a thing about most insects, except butterflies and bumble bees!

I hope that not what's wrong with mine.  My power supply keeps cutting off and I have to remove main plug and plug it back in again and the pc starts again.  I am sure it's dust. I hope I haven't a nest of spiders or something nasty when I eventually get off my backside and remove the back. :o

I moved my PC the other day, and was amazed at the amount of dust, just in the grill for the case fan!  I really must take the lid off and give it a hoover one day.
