Cleaning your computer

Hey I was just wondering, how often you clean your computer and accessories, like keyboard and monitor, and what people use to clean their computers?

It depends on the part, I generally clean my LCD screen once a week, with a damp cloth (very gently). My keyboard and computer case about every month using a can of compressed air. This gets rid of dust within the case and anything crumbs that fall beneath the keys in my keyboard. I think regular computer maintenance can help give your computer a longer life.

:) cheers that's really helpful! I used to just takes all the keys off the keyboard so the crums can easily come out, and I could clean the keys better, but the compressed air idea is genius :D :) will do that in the future :)

I used to do the same until i discovered compressed air, and its really cheap aswell. Usually only $10 a can, which lasts ages!
