Actually I do use a small hobby air compressor. I even use it when cleaning to blow dust off of the top of shelves. The PSI is not that strong compared to the air cans though. But it is enough to get the dust moving, so I use a vacuum as well to suck up all the dust inside the computers. As such I have not purchased a can of air in over 4 years. Actually that one at doityourself is a good bargain at that price. My office is located in a very old dusty building and as such I have to clean alot, so for me this was a real savings. You will need to get some sort of nozzle as the air compressor only comes with just the cable. I use an old cheap airbrush that I picked up for $10 at a hobby store in Hopkins. They also sell an attachment that I can fill up my tires as well.
