    NEWBIE 3 hours SOME EXPERIENCE 2 hours EXPERT 1 hour There’s more to keeping a PC running smoothly than launching an occasional chkdsk or deleting some temporary Internet files. PCs are machines, and all machines need regular maintenance. This doesn’t include changing the oil every 3000 miles, but it does include cleaning and dusting, among other things. Yes, dusting! Being a PC tech doesn’t get you out of housework! Don’t be fooled by the benign appearance of a typical PC, monitor, or printer.
