Open a door and then a window. Then stick a box fan so it blows air out
the window. Then use the compressor / air blow tool to blow all the
dust
off everything, then most of the dust goes out the window!

This works great for around a stereo / TV where it gets all that dust
back behind the components. Also cleans off the remote controls and
things like a phone.

(I just did some dry-walling and had dust everywhere and the compressor
in the living room... which gave me the idea.)

Electric leaf blower works better. I use it in my car. Don't use gas
powered one in the house. Dittos for your compressor and use oil-less.

I routinely use leaf blower to blow the dust bunnies out of old
computers I am resurrecting. Pop the lid, set them down in driveway, and
have at it.

Don't try a leaf blower in the basement however. (Cough, cough...)
DAMHIKT.

Know it was posted as a funny but I use leaf blower to get leaves out of
garage and just pull car out, open doors and blast away.

Oh, I do that too, about once a year, to get winter sandpiles and
cobwebs and left-over orphan leaves out of the place. That big open door
makes all the difference. There was just no practical way to set up a
fast air exchange in my basement, the way it is chopped up. (I was
trying to be nice to the plumber I had scheduled in, by getting the
joist bays blown out.) I'd have to rent some fire-department style vent
fans with the ducts.
