I wouldnt get a metal nozel from a hoover anywhere near my RAM or even a plastic one.


End of the day you need more RAM. See if you can get another stick of 1GB.

You can stop Dyson brushes from rotating while using the hose. Twist the big knob on the rhs of the brush head.

One way is dust particles moving in a dry airflow.

Tribocharging is the thing you seek..
