Best way to clean dust out of consoles?

Will a can of compressed air get all of the dust out of the inside? I imagine a vacuum would probably be too strong and cause damage to the parts inside.

Soak it in water (and a little bleach) overnight.

The can of compressed air will work. Just remember to do it outside.

And, if you're going to soak it in water just make sure it's plugged in first.

This has been paid for the Buy New Consoles Council & Electricity is Awesome for Frying LLC.

I would tell you to just blow on it, but I've been telling that to my wife for years and she hasn't listened, so why should you?
