I've got to chime in here for a second. As of a few weeks ago, I upgraded the processor, memory, hard drive and replaced the keyboard all in one swoop. It really wasn't that difficult as long as you've got some patience and you're careful.
The main thing that sticks out in my mind is to get a good set of instructions and to use a big piece of tape to hold the screws so that you can remember the exact order you took them out and maybe a pad with some details of what goes where just in case. I guess if you've got money to burn you can pay MCE to do the work but heck, in this economy, every bit counts!
