Hi,

First of all be careful of using a standard vaccuum cleaner as it could
cause an electrical arc and damage some of the components, becase they are
usually not shielded. Sometimes you can buy mini attachments which are
plastic and then you're a bit safer in terms of using a regular vaccuum.

Second, a cheap investment is a can of compressed air. Turn your computer
off and blast away (carefully).

Third, a small brush to dust away the inards is always a safe bet.

Hope these suggestions find you well.
