I started to worry about lead paint problem when
buying an old house. I bought a lead test kit and
tested the paint chips from the windows and fould them
to be positive. Then I tested some computer boards,
and the result was postive too. Have you ever found
white powders near solder on your vintage board? They
are most likely lead dioxide. When you power up your
vintage computers, some lead dust will be blown to the
air and inhaled by your kids... Well, the last
sentence is my pure imagination. Has anybody done any
research on this issue? To be safe, I am going to
throw most of my boards to attic, which are lying on
the floor and accessible to my two year old daughter.
