So I work in a PC repair shop and we are trying to find the best way to clean out equipment that comes through. Traditionally, we've just been using the little compressed air cans, but they are expensive and don't last long. We're looking for a better solution.

There's a shop vac idea, but that doesn't eliminate the need for the compressed air cans. We'd need to blow out vents, then suck it up with the shop vac.

Another idea is a small air compressor. I've heard that this can be bad for electronics as moisture can build up in the lines over time. There are line drier's you can buy, but it starts getting expensive quickly.

Any recommendations?
