>1. Why does it collect so much dust? Any >ideas how to get rid of it?

Every electrical device collects dust (becouse of electricity). It is natural and there are no good ways do get rid of it premanently.

DO NOT USE WATER WHEN CLEANING YOUR FALCON MOTHERBOARD BECOUSE YOU MAY DAMAGE/DESTROY YOUR FALCON!

There are special "computer" cosmetics avialible in shops, or just use something dry.

>2. Some keys from my keyboard (e.g. alt and >dell 2 nescessary keys if you have a pc but >still nice to have them on an atari) don't >work. Can I fix them myself?

It depends. Sorry, but my english skills are just not enough to describe it. Anywa youll need some parts that are not avialible, so I recommenf buying new keyboard (keep tle old one - just in case) - also look at my answer on your fourth question.

>3. The psu has only one out. If I want to >change my 20meg hd I need a second... any >ideas there?

It is possible, but your PSU may not survive long time after this. I recommend you to use PC PSU.

>4. My mouse is almost ready to depart from >this world and go to green fields (ok green >desktops) where the sun allways shines and >there is peace. Can I convert a pc one? >maybe an optical.....

Look at: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/laurent.favard/eiffel_e.html. It is free ps2 keyboard and ps2 mouse adapter for Ataris.
