If it's a PC, the USB sockets are on the front of the hard drive (if it's a Dell) or round the back of it. It's a small rectangle shape. I also have a few on the back end of my keyboard.
Instead of using the vacuum, you can also buy a can of pressurised air specifically made for blowing dust and debris out of keyboard keys. I've seen it sold at Wal-Mart, Office Depot and a few other places.
You can also carefully pop off the keys and replace them yourself after cleaning.
I clean the dust off my key board with a soft 2 " paint brush. Works great.Any art supply has them.
They will either be on the front of your tower or in the back of it. It should be near where you plugged in your keyboard and or speakers. If you have to, unplug your speakers and use that one, just remember to plug your speakers back in after you are done.
A USB socket can be found almost anywhere on a PC, usually in the back. Most laptops have them in the sides or in the back. common computer items that plug into USB sockets are printers, cameras and other types of additional computer add-ons. it is aobut the size of the tip of your finger, long and rectangular. it has a symbol that looks like a trident ( a three-wayed fork) laying on its side, with symbols on the end, such as a circle, a triangle and a square. This is the USB socket, plug the mini vac into it and it should work just fine, feel free to ask more if this isn't clear enough!
