Clean internals of PS3
 

Just read this, thought it might be helpful, AFAIK it only works in 40/80 and probably 160GB PS3's, which is annoying for me....:p:

Start off by turning the PS3 completely off from the switch at the back of the console and turning it back on while simultaneously holding the eject button.

A loud whir will signal your success as the PS3 console enters the self maintenance mode, with all of the internal fans instantly revving their little hearts outs and cleaning the innards of your PS3 from harmful dust particles - not to mention making a noise that we all thought the whisper quiet PS3 was absolutely incapable of.

After roughly ten seconds your PS3 will automatically go back into standby mode and you'll be the owner of a dust free console.

Yep does not work on the 60GB model :( but what it does is reverse the PS3 fans to blow all the dust out of the console :)

Hey, I got an 80gb model, will try that out later.:D I like noise. :shocked:

I don't suppose there is way you can do this with a 360 is there?:)

If you are a smoker then all your fans will get covered in tar and all the dust will stick to this tar rendering the cleanup as fruitless . For the none smoker though this is bang on :)
