  • Dusty computers

    Just a question for you computer users out there. How often do you dust or vacuum out your computers? I just gave ours a good dusting out this morning and try to do it about every 2-3 months when I can.

      I admit that many many years ago with our older desktop computers, I'd get in there with a vacuum cleaner and just vacuum out as much as I can -- which probably wasn't as effective as it could have been. Nowadays, I don't vacuum any more but instead use a can of compressed air.

      And the nice thing about our laptops is that unlike our desktops, they don't need to be opened up.

          The dust is what holds it together.

                          Very seldom. Less often than I should. And I use a can of compressed air.
                          Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

                            I dust my laptops more frequently than my desktops because stuff in there is so compact, and dissipation of heat can be a real problem - more so than in a desktop. A simple can of compressed air does the trick.
                            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
