Hi all, I found this old ThinkPad and I would like to pass it on to someone that could really use it, but it’s a bit disgusting. What is the best and easiest way to clean this? What tool would/ do you use?

    Yes. Thx, I forgot about that. Especially the insides. You probably want to have a look inside, if the outside already looks that dirty. And the case / outside is probably fine with some light zapping. It went through ESD testing and certification. And should be able to deal with electrostatic discharge in some way. But the (individual) components on the inside are way more delicate and not made to withstand it.
