Recently i opened my alienware m11xr2 screen to add the extra antennas for wwan slot evreything went great used dells 1545 antennas and fits perfect my only concern is there is dust inside the screen u cannot see it when its on but when its off it bothers me because i know its there where do u get new double sticky tape and do i use compress air and in a hot shower bathroom? so dust and lit wont come in english my first language so sorry if i misspell some words or forgot put periods

Defiantly used compressed air first before using any other method to reduce the chance of any other contaminants getting in there.
I am sure people with more experience will offer more advice soon.

well i used to have a DIY erectable tent of sorts (not a big one) with a fan on 1 side to with a filter, to get the dust out so i could work on things like that (was a fairly crude thing made from clear plastic and some sticks, wouldn't filter out all of the dust, but made it a lot better(wet cloth for a filter, hardcore that)) but i doubt it is worth going through all the trouble just for that lol.
hot shower would get the surfaces damp, i haven't opened my m11x screen, but i am fairly sure there should be a seal between screen and the cover thing, with too much moisture between them you might get fogging and/or water residue.
I get what you mean, i am OCD about dust between screen and cover as well(looking for seals new seals for my psp as dust keeps getting in there and p*ssing me off) best option is to just get into the most dust-free place in your house(think no furniture with fabrics, curtains that sort of thing, nothing for dust to come off) work with minimal sort of movement not to stir the dust up too much, you'll likely still get few bits of dust in there anyways, most likely.
i want a clean room for this sort of thing -
Yea i was thinking about that just pissing me off today i got a offer for my alienware 850 is that a good price? how much are the new r3's with i7
