Sometimes you really scare me, Lucas. >:(

100C is for boiling water haha, smoke's gonna be quite a bit higher hopefully.. In the meantime, I'll just continue heating up drinks beside the vents haha, awesome way to get warm coffee while gaming XD

Oh come on, that is a new word I want people to start using. Hehe. Thanks for letting me know. I just corrected it.

The flowers budding on the trees. The birds feeding their babies, and fixing their nests.

Debbie, thank you so much for your kind words and taking the time to share.

I'm totally with you on that one! :)

Thank you for the warning. This information must be more widely known.

I certainly hope it goes through, and more importantly that people aren't injured. And, I am happy to support them from afar :)

Sam - Thank you very much. :D I've never cleaned inside a Mac Mini. You might be in a better position to inform Lucas!

Doddsy - Thank you for the tips. I know that they're sound ones coming from you. :D

I've always been a bit distrustful of dust filters, because of the reduced fan efficiency. Have I been too hard on them?

Oh dear. I see that Reddit lure and I'm going to be powerless to resist...

On a continued note on the topic of dusting computers I don't use compressed air all that often and instead use a hand pump which has a nozzle so you can pump small quantities of pressurised air onto the components that are in need of care. It is more of a personal choice but I just prefer having small bursts, especially as it is usually pretty clean.

Another note to reduce the issues of dusts is to look at the airflow of the computer. A larger, more open system allows a good circulation of air, and when the inevitable dust particles get in to the system they are more finely spread and more conveniently dislodged by the natural air flow.

It is also worth taking note of the dust filters that computers use. Filters are a way to reduce the amount of dust, but also reduce the efficiency of the fans ability to cool the components. The ones Corsair make are a nice compromise, and cases that allow to take out the filters mean you can clean them regularly to increase their effectiveness.

Nice one, shared this with the help of some of the lovely buttons up there ;-) Another reason why I love my Mac Mini far less to clean - now the PCs, that is another story!

My best friends husband is an alcoholic... he is only getting worse...I fear for my friend and her children,. thanks for a great article

So happy you found it! Now we have another reason to adore him, how many people can sign a song and play guitar too? It's a beautiful video. I found it by researching famous Geminis. Depp, Portman, and McCartney are all Gemini's, communicators, so I couldn't resist using the video on a Famous Gemini piece I wrote on another site! Take Care.

lindylou2, You can do it, start with one small area and enjoy. It really is amazing for me to walk around and remember when I first began. I'm a very energetic person, constantly gotta be doing something till I make myself so tired I collapse at the end of each day. I spend time outside everyday because I love the outdoors, so if you like the outdoors you'll get hooked. Thanks for visiting great to hear from you.
