    How can I clean my laptop? :sweat:
    Specially between the keys? =/

    I didn't find how in the manual for it, how do you clean it if you have one?

    Yes, compressed air cans should clean it well enough. Or!! you can play with it and turn it upside down to freeze things. ^_^

    Don't give her ideas. My friends do that all the time. One time they got my butt-crack with it.

    hahahaha that's gotta suck, Neph ;)

    Canned air is great for cleaning keyboards and inside cases though, good stuff. If that doesn't work, on some laptops you can take the keyboard off, unplug it, and do the 'soak it in water, then leave it out to dry for 2 days' trick. DO NOT do this if you wanna use your laptop within about 2 days though, and if you don't know how to take the keyboard off.. Don't. Take it to a shop and have them clean it, or just make do with canned air.

    It's air compressed and cooled with....err...co2 in a can, I think. Well, it MAY be co2...I forgot. Anyway, it blows out the air pretty hard.....therefore blowing out the dust in the laptop.

    It's specially for electonic parts. It's not like water, it'll disappear (evaporate i think). It doesn't damage computers as i have friends who clean the insides of their pc's with it (spraying it on their motherboards etc...).
