Out of curiosity, for those of you who dust the inside of electronics -- is there a product that's good to use? Do we just bust out a dustbuster, open up the CPU, and go to town?

Safest bet is compressed air.

I hope you mean canned compressed air and not a shop compressor. Shop compressors do not dry the air and can spray water (unless you have an inline drier which is usually very rare in a home setup). Also, there can be a tendency to have the PSI set too high.

Yes, I meant the canned compressed air, readily available at any electronics store.
