Ok, but I did some research before I posted this (in this forum too).
And there were advice to be careful. Some holes are just decoration (= no problem to blow air into it) but some holes are (surprise surprise) real holes with the speakers beneath it.
Problem:
a) Possible you blow that dirt just deeper into the case
b) Possible you damage the speaker beneath it

true?


Common sense says you are not blowing air into anything, you are using the compressed air like a brush across the holes at a steep angle in an effort to lift the debris out...
