Can anyone tell me how to remove (or move) the dust on the inside surfaces of my HP-42S display window(s)?

Thanks,
Tom Scott

One thing I failed to mention was not to jam the tube in so far as to split the bottom half from the top. The older windowed version machine bezels will distort a bit, possibly leaving a wrinkle. Uggh. You just need to direct the air blast between the halves and the tapered tip helps alot.

The techique worked pretty well although I did leave small marks on the side of the plastic case where I wedged the two halves apart. Also, it looks like I left a small mark on the window (perhaps when I slipped trying to wedge the tube in).
