And at most office stores (Office Max, Office Depot, Staples).

Doe anyone know if there is a difference in canned air? Is the product purchased from Office Max inferior to Dustoff in a significant way?

One other note on cleaning the insides: I have been told to NOT use a vacuum because you can run into static electricity issues which can zap components and render them DOA (assuming that you are using a standard household vacuum and not one that the copier repair people use with special static control).
