I know that a good percentage of you are skeptical.
Every one of my
games in my arcade collection had at least the CPU boardset in the
dishwasher. Several others had every single board through the wash.
All of them work, and did so before going into the dishwasher and
immediately after drying. Others had the monitors powerwashed. I took
an entire 11/780 out into my driveway and I powerwashed the chassis
AND backplane!
I thought we weren't supposed to use the dishwasher on anything with
capacitors.
