Disassembled 3 Laptops and a PS3 and took a shitload of pictures!

I shot everything hand held with my dSLR using a ceiling bounce to flash the shots and that is why the exposures tend to be inconsistent. Edited everything minimally.

Here is my current laptop the ASUS G50VT which was apart so I could put a second wifi card in the inaccessible second Mini PCI-E slot:

Same day I worked on the ASUS I tore down my old HP Compaq F730US which was dead:

Soulzz i swear you forget everything as quickly as you see or hear it. The ASUS was open to put a card in a hidden slot. The Compaq was dead and being salvaged for parts (Still available btw), the Toshiba was in need of a repaste and i figured I would do the PS3 since it had never been done.

Ah. It's starting to come back to me.... LOL!

I've been working on a few laptops for some co-workers; plus, I have a 17" DIY laptop; some of them laptops are a bitch to get apart. I had to replace a power board + a couple screens; I fucking love my laptop compared to some of pieces of shit Dell laptops at work. Most of the newer laptops have easy access to the pci slots + you can find the wifi cards for $5 on ebay.

Yeah the toshiba requires a full tear down to get to the cpu cooler the 210's were upside down so they only needed half a disassembly.

My ASUS you can get to anything almost just with the bottom panel off, but the slot for the tv tuner I needed to get to was under plastic. I have gotten to it with a partial before.
