    I feel the need to do a little cleaning; I know some debris is under my keyboard and trapped in my speaker cover. Is there a way to remove them without tearing anything up so that I can spray some compressed air?

    Well I suppose you can just hold the laptop upside down and then use compressed air to spray upwards. Hopefully the air and gravity will get most of the stuff out.

    On most Asus notebooks, there are small clip on the top of the keyboard that you'd have to unhook in order to remove the keyboard. Use a small flat heard screw driver to unhook these clips.
