i fixed that laptop but i put it back together a bit cobbled - if and when you do a project like that take a movie and then you can remember where the 39 screws go...the laptop works - i am going to have it be my work laptop mas o menos? it depends on what they decide to do. my garbage repair is good enough for me but in hindsight i shouldn't pawn it off on a client and it is basically a 50 dollar machine at best - i do like the 8 threads #jumpbox #hackery confession box
