Remember the 1980s? Oversized shoulder pads, Metal Mickey and... sticky keyboards?

I worked at a nickel processing plant in the early 2000s and we had a similar problem . The front end of the plant used Hydrogen Sulphide and Sulphuric Acid. The computers in the control room for that area lasted one year at best before replacement was required. Even the copper tubing in the air conditioning units was destroyed after about 18 months.
