do you always clean your notebook?

Always clean my laptop every day

 

I clean the exterior of my notebook every week or so. The screen and keyboard are my main areas of concern since they collect dust and lint easily. I clean the interiors maybe bi-monthly at best, though. I just get lazy when I think about disassembling it to clean everything.

 

I usually wait until there is distracting fingerprints and smudges on the screen, in my case that = 2 or 3.

 

I wait until my keys start getting that (ugly, imo) shine, then use rubbing alcohol + paper towel to wipe it off. Sometimes do this to the lid as well.

 

i wipe mine down every few days with antistatic cleaner and a lint free microfibre, use lcd screen clean as well for.....well the screen hobviously ;-)

i also use a very soft paintbrush to tease stubborn crumbs etc out from under the keys on the keyboard and in the random cracks and crevises down the touchpad click keys etc

 

Keeping it clean is a must for me. I take pride in the fact that my near 3 year old laptop still looks like day one. Once a week I will wipe it down with a cotton cloth and a mixture of 1 part dishwashing soap and 10 parts water. Does a good job on removing the oil from your skin. Once a month I will close all the ports and rinse it off under the sink. Then give it a final rinse in distilled water. I will then spray some wax detailer for an automobile and shine/protect it up. Still looks like brand new, even though I use it in some pretty extreme places.

 

I clean my laptop as much as I can, but my current laptop is so old that I don't care as much anymore. My new laptop, I'll probably clean it every day when I get it.

 

I clean my laptop almost every day.I like to keep it perfect clean condition.MY laptop stay at desk all the time.I even cover my laptop when not using.I hate dust.

 

I would be more anal (it kills me to see it dirty), but it seems that when I get so concerned with keeping dirt off, something always ends up scratched. Pretty much the same way with my car. It looks a little dusty if you wash it once a month, but start keeping it clean weekly, and birds aim for it within ten minutes of you finishing the wax job.

 

Too shiny, so poop target shooting by the birdies!

 

Like most, I don't always clean it... But when I do it looks like a new one. (looks like)

 

Ive tried doing this, but found it to be a test in futility as it would just re-shine a few days later. Oh and IM one of those people that if I touch any food I wash my hands before touching my laptop so its all natural oils I guess.

Now I dust meticulously, wipe down the screen to remove smudges and whatever may be on it and I wipe the keys with windex or lysol from time to time. Id say once every 2-3 weeks to a month I do this along with the inside of the laptop. Although I have noticed that the dells I have had recently are very similar to my thinkpads and that they dont collect dust at all. So really just an "incase" clean.

 

I should probably do that. The top of my screen has so many fingerprints on it because that's what I grab when I open it up...In the right light, it makes it look horrendous...

 

I usually clean it once a month.

 

I keep a pack of the electronic wipes (wal-mart) in my notebook bag and use them whenever mine is smudged up or gets dusty. I tend to give it a good wipe down weekly. I also use canned air on the fans and vents (open cover) once a month or so.

 

notebook fanboys...

I just check the temps every few weeks to make sure there isn't dust in the fan and otherwise it looks like it hasnt been used in 5 months

 

I use canned air once a month or so. And use cleaner and microfiber cloth when grimy.

as I use an external mouse and keyboard, I just get limited fingerprints from opening and closing. I probably still wipe down once or twice a week. I am more worried about dust bunnies on the inside than the few fingerprints I put on. I always have a couple cans of air and lens cleaning wipes on hand...

 

Usually, when the laptop is new, the cleaning frequency is high.
As it gets older, the frequency decreases

 

Hmmm, I tried to clean my laptop but I kinda messed the keyboard abit.
I didnt take out the fan or the GPU because you need to take out the system board.
Its scary
