I asked about removing dust accumulations from AS255s (the dust seems
to cause lots of fan activity).

Thanks to the following for suggestions:
       Paul Kitwin <PAUKIT_at_HBSI.COM>
       Huehls, Mark R <huehlsm_at_indy.navy.mil>
       David Steere <dls_at_ce.berkeley.edu>

The consesus of opinion was:
  1) Yes, at least one other person has had similar experience
     with AS255s.
  2) It's good preventative-maintenace practice to keep machines
     dust-free.
  3) Using an ordinary carpet vacuum cleaner is NOT recommended!
     Might frighten the AlphaStation to death? :-)
  4) Use a can (or other source) of compressed air (allow machine
     to cool 1st) and beware of blowing dust into floppy, CD or tape
     drives.

Thanks.
