    This was the first one (to my knowledge to get mainstream usage) This is by far the most well known. And by far the longest running.

    Excuse me sir, I think you have some CPU on your thermal paste.
     
    I would bet that it could be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol and still work. Assuming that owner didn't do stupid shit with it. (Which he probably did, worth a shot though)
