A sweep is as lucky as lucky can be~

Well, there's no confirmation on there being any luck, yet. But I figure that, if there's to be any, then sweeping out my computer for the first time, after three years of gathering dust, could land me some back-pay.

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, though; everything considered. Still, I'm going to look into covering vents and other holes with a fine wire mesh or something, to keep the inside cleaner and make cleaning the accumulated dust a lot easier. I need this sucker to last another year or two. Le sigh.

My laptop was really bad the first time I cleaned it (After about 2 years of operation).

A solid wall of dust had formed in the heatsink, which completely cut of the fan's airflow, which made my computer overheat very very easily.

I also left all the screws in the bottom out of it after I had to open it for the 5th or so time. So now when I want to open it I just lift it up ^^.

My computer only needs to last until Starcraft 2 comes out, at which point I'll be replacing it. I don't really use it for gaming, although amazingly it can run WoW at 30fps.
