Apart from turning the computer off and disconnecting the power cord,
is there anything I should keep in mind if I want to blow dust out of
the case with a can of Dust-Off? Is there any reason why doing this
would be hazardous to any part of the machine?
About the only thing I can think of is that disk drives don't like
dust, so I must take care not to blow dust directly towards the
drives. I suppose I should be careful not to subject the components
to extremely cold blasts from the can, although if you hold the can
upright it normally isn't that cold.
Overall it seems safer to try to blow dust out of the cash than to try
to remove it with a brush or something, which would risk building up
static or shorting something out (like a capacitor or something).
