Dust inside case

Is it a good idea to remove dust from inside a computer using a ompressed
air can?

Is there any possibility that I can cause static and kill the system, or is
it best left alone?

Yes, much better than most other methods.

The best thing about using compressed air is that you don't
have to touch anything inside the case. Even so, you should
still earth yourself before proceeding, as static can still jump
small gaps.
