Yes, but it doesn't get as good as the "old stuff".  Who needs ozone
anyways?

Freeze spray still exists. See here for one of the better manufacturers:

Well, back the days of electronic repair shops when we still had an
ozone layer, we actually had "freeze spray" chocked full of
chloro-flourocarbons.  They used to have some really good de-greasers
and cleaners too.  

Compressed air worked in pinch, just don't let frost build up on the
chip or board.

You mean like turning a can of compressed air upside down and spraying
the board?

        Electronics commonly have thermal problems.  There's been many a
time I've troubleshot motherboards with a can of freeze spray.

        It was great.  I left it in the freezer the whole time (with the
extention running out between the gasket.  The colder it got, the longer
between "failures" I had.

         

        With out the cold, the drive immeadiately fails. I owe whomever
figured out the freezer trick big time...

        I like the ingenuity of the extention cords J

        I'd never heard of anyone doing it before, but it just let me
get the data off of mine (albeit in many ~10 second incriments).

         

        Viva la flexible ice packs...

        Viva la USB extentions cords...

        Viva la robocopy...

         

        That is all.
