But, if the problem isn't sunlight itself, but the UV component of it,
yellowing can be caused also by fluerescent lamps (which emit a lot of UVs).
Can anyone confirm or deny this? I'm a bit worried because I store my vintage
computer collection (not only Apples but also some European 8-bits!) in a
room lighted by a fluorescent bulb (a big one with a couple fluorescent tubes
inside it).

Matt,

A while back I researched this in depth and found that cigarette smoke
left a brown tar residue but didn't contribute to case yellowing
(non-cleanable yellowing). Sunlight seemed to be cause in every case I
found.

Is there any way to remove the yellow tint from a classic Mac?  Even
if it
can't be removed is there something that at least helps?

What causes it and how can it be kept from getting worse?

Thanks!

Matt
