Sounds like Black Locust or Honey Locust tree seed pods. They are like Snow
Pea pods (Snow Peas like you get at your local Chinese restaurant). About
10-12mm wide x 20mm to up to about 100mm long. The unit probably was stored
for awhile in a garage or such building with one of those trees nearby.
I've found Mountain Ash leaves (they're rather small leaves, like Locust
tree leaves) in the fans of some other pieces of equipment I had over the
past decades.

I'm not sure, I'm threatening to do a page up on it for my web pages :^)
It's a little pod with a couple of small round seeds in it. It rattles
rather nicely. Well, thanks in part to advice to from Bruce Lane,
I was able to find the
problem with the power supply. I pulled the PS out and cleaned it up, and
then cleaned up the area around it. That's when I discovered the problem,
a seed pod.
Heh... can I call 'em or can I call 'em? ;-)
Those supplies are actually pretty durable if they've had the ECO
applied.
That's why I suspected the mechanical debris issue.
Any clue as to what kind of seed it was?
