Dust accumulations in AS255s

Hi,

We've noticed that after about a year of use, the fans in our AlphaStations
(mostly 255s) start to switch on and off a lot. This seems to be
caused by an accumulation of dust (mostly in the fan area?). Cleaning
the machine restores peace and tranquility.

The questions: Is this common experience? What's the best way of
removing dust from inside the machine? Is it worth buying a special
mini vacuum / blower kit or is it ok to use an ordinary carpet vacuum
cleaner?

Thanks,
  Aideen
