once again:

Never use a vacuum to clean out any part of your computer. It could cause static electricty damage to the components of your computer and you would never know until there was a failure.

I am a computer technician (well that is what I went to college for but became a DJ/KJ lol go figure no jobs in that field after I graduated)
I am going to change this to never use a vacuum to if you get a special and right type of hand held computer vacuum and are careful then yes... DO NOT USE YOUR HOUSEHOLD VACUUM It will cause a lot of static electricty.
