Areawide dust prevention

[javafiend]

I am getting really annoyed by the amount of dust that seems to collect on, in, and around my computer. If there's a place for dust to settle on my desk, it will. Does anyone know a good way to keep dust away or if there is some form of dust collection besides my computer?

Thanks!

have you tried some of this fan filters?

you could always try to use dust covers when your computer is not in use.

also is your desk made of wood or metal? there are some cleaning solutions that keep dust away for longer time, can't remember of any right now though.

Lastly I found this tips that helps keep your computer clean

try changing your furnace filter. alot of dust in the room is a good sign that its dirty, and also make sure your return duct is not blocked in your room. that will help with the dust, and give you better heating and cooling!

computergeek19 - My desk is custom built (by me :)) with plexi over MDF for the top. I'm sure the plexi must be a dust magnet.

rendermandan - Now that you mention it, I'm sure it is way overdue to replace my furnace/AC filter. Better set aside a few bucks for a new one.

The plexi will certainly help attract dust with static build up.

Here's a thought, could I potentially ground the plexi on the aluminum desk legs? You know, kinda like the anti-static wrist straps?
