Hey every one!
I have this problem, and i was wondering if you cool people could help!

As i live on a property some dust has gotten into my FP imac
(i think though an open window),
i was wondering what the best way would be to remove it?

thank you in advance for all of your responces.

You could try a vacum cleaner , that why the dust will (hopefully) come out the same way it got in.

the dust is on the fan of the imac,

If i was to use compressed air, wouldn't it just spray into the imac more?
