Hi I am Dean and I was wondering how to clean the dust out of my computer without taking it apart, as you all know the warranty will be void if I do.
Many will tell you to use a can of compressed air to blow out the dust, but I can't recommend that, since it will tend to blow the dust all over the interior of the laptop, and could cause more problems then it solves.
The safest way, short of disassembly, is to use a vacuum cleaner to pull out the dust. If you want, put a piece of cheesecloth over the nozzle so you can see what you've pulled out. Also be careful when vacuuming near the fans, as you can easily damage the fan bearings by turning them too fast. You can try securely taping a piece of toothpick to the case to immobilize the fan.
