Obviously, a special vacuum cleaner designed for cleaning computers. If you just blow the dust out with canned air, it will be re-absorbed either by the exact same computer or another one in the same area.

Reason for posting is that I bought some RAM from crucial.com - thanks for the tip. Used their scan utility, $60 for (2) 1GB sticks. Shipped pretty quick, the only surprise was that it was packed in a bare envelope with no padding, only a clamshell around each stick.

Oh yes, gotta take it outside to blow it out... plus you'd be breathing that shit too.
