Compressed Air = FTMFW.

Seriously man, how can you own a PC and *not* have, or know about, cans of compressed air? They're seriously awesome for clearing off dust and the propellent residue dissipates in seconds too, so no danger of damaging sensitive components.

You have to be exceedingly careful when holding the can though, as prolonged contact during a burst can give you FROSTBITE.

I always use a vacuum cleaner with variable speed as well Smile
Turn it way down, hit the can and let it suck up whatever comes flying out!

If you want to go completely OCD, you could have a handi-vac, like a Dust Devil, instead Very Happy

Don't smoke around your PC and you won't have that dirty dust problem in the first place. I say this because I used to smoke around my computer all the time and the dust that built up inside was entirely disgusting.

That normal dust comes loose easy enough with any of the methods mentioned above.

Seriously you never heard of compressed air before? You could always get a shop vac and reverse the airflow as well ...
