Literally, my Slim attracts layers of dust. It's like a magnet for dust, everytime look at it, it's dark brownish color. Everytime I play my PS3, it attract dust even faster, is there a way to keep the dust off?

Thats a good thing. All electronics get covered in dust and it is harmful to electronics.

This is the PS3's way of telling you it needs to be cleaned.

This is how I take care of mine: I unplug the system when not in use and put a small clean towel over it so dust wont fall on it.

The Wii and 360 also collect a lot of dust but you can't see it on them since they're white.

I used to own them both, my 360 attract way less dust, and my Wii is a dust collector(played it for 2 hrs, never touched it again, then sold it on eBay)

Well it does do EVERYTHING. You should be thanking it for getting you some dust to sell.

Get a medium sized towel and when you're not playing just cover your consoles.

Just... burn it. That it way, it won't exist, and if it doesn't exist, it can't collect dust.

Gotta catch 'em all!

Try setting up a small fan in the general area of the PS3 while it's running and covering it up with a pillow case when it's off.
