My G5/1.8mHz stinks. I bought it used. The first thing I noticed when I turned it on was the smell. I blamed it on that electronic smell. If I leave it running overnight, my neighbour who comes over for coffee every morning will ask me what smells. When I leave it turned off overnight, he asks me if I found what the stink was. The other night my neighbour who is primarily a Windows guy turned on his iMac he bought new, and hasn't really had on for more than an hour or so at a time in the year he bought it. This time he had it on for +24 hours and called me to come up to help him find the weird smell coming from his Mac desk set up. Did I think it was the iMac, the external drive... he didn't know and wanted a fresh nose. <shrug> Finding the article two days later, and posting it here might have other Mac users being conscious of any weird smells they haven't been able to track down, and running their own un-scientific testing. Or not. Gawdferbid we should accept anecdotal findings as being anything that makes Apple less god-like ;-)
