Incorporating a few basic tips into your daily laptop routine can maintain its performance. For instance you can:

” Buy a microfiber cloth to clean off dust — using a soft material will prevent scratches.
” Make use of anti-bacterial wipes to eliminate germs on the keyboard and laptop exterior.
” Do not eat food or consume drinks near your laptop — crumbs and liquid often get into the keyboard which can cause damage.
” Use a pressurized air can to blow out dust from hard to reach areas of your laptop, such as the keys.

Laptop insurance will cover accidental damage or theft, but will not cover maintenance issues. This is why you should make every effort to keep your laptop clean.
