Anyone have any idea how to remove dust from the air?

I so far can only think of this (pic related)

but other than that I really can't think of any other way of taking the dust out of my air.

I'm assuming you're looking for something homemade?

I don't think a towel would be the best, as it's probably not going to porous enough to keep air flowing (assuming you want airflow in addition to keeping the dust out of the air)

You could probably use one of those filters that's made for central a/c in a house. They come in different sizes, so you could probably find one that you could either tape or screw to the front of a fan. I'd probably put it on the intake side of the fan, but you could probably put one on both sides if you really wanted to. A bonus to the store bought filter is that you don't have to keep it wet. I have no idea how well it would work, but I guess it's worth trying.

Why do you want to do this, by the way?

Ill give it a try with filters when I get a chance to go pick some up. The room I live in is INCREDIBLY DUSTY, It only has 1 window and that can't really be opened at all due to -10 degrees out.
I don't care much about airflow I am just sick of breathing in all the air particulate, and my computer is too. I have noticed a SIGNIFICANT heat increase since the last time it was cleaned well and I can't do much about it, canned air does nothing and I don't have access to an air compressor at the moment.

Well, the filters should be pretty cheap. I know you can get the really cheap ones for probably about a dollar or two. I'd start with that before I went too crazy.

I might either go pick up one of these filters tomorrow or Monday and give this a shot myself. If I do it, I'll post pics and the results.

On a side note, have you tried to figure out why your room is so dusty?

Also, if you're on a tight budget, you could probably get one of those 12v compressors you plug in to the cigarette lighter in your car. It's not as good as one you'd plug in to your house, but it should do the job for cleaning a PC. You'd have to spend a couple dollars on the proper air chuck, but those don't cost a lot.
