Dust in the Artificially Generated Wind
First, the bad news: there’s dust and crud all over your monitor, your desk, your chair, the floor around your desk, your lungs, and maybe a little bit in that Mr. Pibb you left sitting out.
Now, the good news: your keyboard is looking fantastic! That coat of
dust you’d gotten used to? Gone! Those tiny crumbs that filled every
nook between the keys, and around the keys, and under the keys,
remnants of a thousand Doritos gone by? Adios, amigos! Your keyboard’s
fresh and sharp and positively dapper, the way it looked before you
ever hunted that first peck. Huff hard and you might even catch a
draught of that new-keyboard smell.
In both cases, the credit or blame goes to Turbo Air by WD-40. Unlike those disposable cans of spray air, or Mars in Total Recall,
it offers an unlimited supply of sweet, cleansing air. And not just the
air floating all around us, but concentrated and blasted through a
29,000 RPM motor at approximately 30 mph.
Scientists say that’s well beyond the speed of filth, so your PC would
have to be encrusted with particularly tenacious scum to withstand it.
Just
park it in its little recharging cradle until the mess gets unbearable,
then bust it out at will to pummel those teeny-weeny crusties into
submission. So what if it’s not quite as strong as your usual canned
air? An included brush backs up your air attacks with physical force.
And if that doesn’t do the trick, maybe the hellaciously loud motor
will scare it all away.
So then what? Where does the dust
go when you blow it away? Well, it winds up pretty much wherever the
wind takes it. Which is why it’s grossing up your workspace instead of
being safely lodged in your keyboard where it can’t hurt anybody, thus
requiring a vacuum and/or a wipedown to clean it all up, while some of
it certainly lodges in other crevices and crannies in the vicinity,
including inside your respiratory system, and, uh…wait, why do people buy this stuff again?
