Take it easy. I was laughing to the point that you might be suggesting that 
I would be better off with using an air compressor for my needs.  As for the 
OP I have no idea if he would have need to use an air compressor where he 
uses the computer.  For my purposes and perhaps the OP the $10 can of CA may 
be perfect. The way I would assume one attempts to answer a question here is 
to give a cost efficient short term response that is correct. If the OP 
gives more info then maybe the air compressor might be a consideration as 
well.
