how do you clean your computer?  also, how often?

I clean my computer every few months with compressed air.

I clean my computer every month or so with compressed air.  Sometimes I use wet paper towels to wipe down the bottom of the case and the outside.

I clean my computer every so often.  Usually when my case temps or processor temps seem high.  I use canned air blow the dust off of my components and their heatsinks.  I also change my case filter (my case has a filter).

My computer gets cleaned out every month. I use canned air to blow dust out of heatsinks and other areas. You should probably be cleaning out your computer monthly if you are using a lot every day.  Heavy dust build up is one of the top causes of hardware failure!

I usually only dust my computer when the temperatures get too high or I have a new part to install.
