Dust: a Potential Pain in the Wallet!

Excessive dust build-up can cause serious problems inside a computer. If you own a laptop or desktop computer, keeping the insides clean is an essential preventative maintenance task, especially for those with pets, who smoke, or keep their computer in a generally dusty area. At least once a month or so, you should be opening up your case and clearing out dust, preferably with compressed air. Otherwise, serious overheating can occur, thus slowing down or even damaging components within your system. To save some money in the long run, take a little time to care for your PC.
