handmethekeysyousays...^to be clear, macs aren't any easier with this.
White Unibody MacBook :
1 - Remove 8 screws from bottom
2 - Remove bottom case
3 - Blow compressed air into fan
4 - Do the opposite of steps 1 & 2 in reverse order
antsays...Ugh, I need to clean my desktop PCs too.
DonanFearsays...1. Use a thin screwdriver or paperclip to stop the fan from spinning.
2. Blow compressed air into the exhaust vent.
3. Use the screwdriver or paperclip to pull out any mutant dust bunnies that get stuck inside.
4. Done!
Of course, this only works if the fan is somewhat accessible from the outside.
MarineGunrocksays...I can attest to the pain in the ass that HPs are to clean. I've only done it twice in 4+ years of having my laptop. Otherwise, I just use a vacuum.

That can potentially cause ESD if you use the compressed air. use an antistatic vacuum next time
