Windex is great for cleaning scanners.
Resolve is a very good carpet cleaning product. Another good one is BlueMagic 912.
Glass and ceramic electric ranges are best cleaned with a product specifically designed for the surface, such as Weiman cook top cleaner. Stainless steel ranges gleam with good wipedown, then a polish with a product like Scotch-Brite stainless steel cleaner.
A good glass cleaner, paper towels and elbow grease. Exceptionally dirty glass may need several applications.
Some tips in using a digital photo scanner correctly is to make sure the scanning area is kept clean. Fine tuning or customizing your scanner settings is also a good tip for good resolutions. Some scanners come with a pre-scan option where one can view the scan before continuing.
one that does good things
The New Inovation Technology Scanner seems to be pretty good. Tis product is available at Sears stores. You can scan your 35mm slides to your computer and also can scan 35mm black and white negatives to the computer.
You don't want to clean your hard drive as you risk damaging it. Dust won't hurt it under normal use.
They are called Daily Shower Cleaners. Spray and walk away. They really do work! You can spray on shower doors or the entire shower. There are many brand names. Tilex works good for me. Your shower will stay clean after 2 weeks. No scrubbing! Last person out of the shower sprays and walks away.
Overall a glass top stove is a good choice. But, you can only have an electric stove with a glass top, not gas. It is quite easy to clean which is a big positive. Also, heat is evenly distributed to the pot.
The best reviews for a photo scanner would most probably be found on forums that may be connected to a certain camera/printer shop such as PrintScan where people who purchase their products leave reviews on how good/bad that particular product was.
A 35mm slide scanner is good for converting 35mm film into DVDs.
HP makes a very good scanner model. EPSON is good to and high quality ink.
