Hey guys, my keyboard on my laptop has accumulated a substancial amount of dust,

do you guys reckon these item would be safe to use? In terms of not sucking up any chips in the laptop

Blimey! Look at the price of postage! I've got a little battery operated one of those which I've had about ten years and never use! I find a can of compressed air does the trick.

You can get them from model shops for a couple of quid. Don't go to Staples and buy the branded ones, they're the same as airbrush air made by Badger etc and come twice as pricey!

What's wrong with an ordinary vacuum cleaner using the sharp, pointy, tool?

Could probably get one of those battery operated ones and make it run off USB with a little bit of soldering

Yea i think Tesco had them instock for xmas. As previous members have stated, just use a normal vacuum cleaner.
