How often do you clean your unit?

incredibleDNA @incredibleDNA (1742) • Philippines 12 Jul 09

It's been really really dusty in my room. It's been weeks also since I last vacuumed my desktop tower since I use my MAC most of the time. How about you myLotter, how often do you clean your desktop tower (inside)?

jonnoboi13 It is better not to clean your computer, especially with a vacumn cleaner or air gun, as the dust moving through the air will create major static and damage your hardware. The less you touch the internals the better. Best bet would be to wipe it down with a...

jonnoboi13 The Matrix is a better idea and if it had've been done, as is, in one or two movies it would win hands down. However since the matrix was stretched so thin through 2 and 3 then Titanic wins by default

jonnoboi13 With suicide you should consider those you leave behind. Trust me the ones you leave will not have it easier. I have been in situations where that is the easiest way out. I am yet to be in the situation where it is the best. If you are looking at suicide as a...

jonnoboi13 Paying your college fees is a big ask online. I'd say start smaller use PTC sites and places like mylot to try and cover your Broardband bill each month. Then atleast it's paying for itself, then go from there

hi!!!!!!!!!! Can Any one Suggest

sujitmacwan @sujitmacwan (1) • India 7 Jul 09

Can any one suggest me which company's laptop is really very good

5 responses

jonnoboi13 As far as the make I'd go with HP myself, but any of the major companies will have good after sale support should any problems arise. Most importantly you need one that will meet all your requirements as it is a lot harder to upgrade a laptops spec later.
