An Affordable Air Purifier For Dusty Computer Labs?

Alcimedes writes "Our lab has a serious issue with dust. I've had a number of power supplies stop working because of dust clogging up the fans, and it's getting annoying. So I'm looking into some kind of small (under $500) air filtration system, and was wondering if anyone else out there has already gone down this road. If so, what did you buy and would you buy it again? I'd prefer something where I don't have to keep buying filters, but that may just be a pipe dream." Anyone with cats knows the feeling. Can you suggest a reasonably priced answer to dust-borne failure?

    Am I lucidly forcasting the future or did I just see this "ask slashdot" question a short while back? You mean there is so little going on that the eds feel the need to post recent history as news? Or perhaps they didn't feel the question was adequately addressed the first time around? Looks more like a wake up call to see if anyone is actually reading the damn thing (which there is. sometimes. occasionally. ho hum...).
