Yeah. :/. They're very not-well put together things. Dell are great, 2 screws and the rest is just push-fits all the way to the CPU and fan, and you can replace the whole display panel without even opening the main case. My acer .... I have a heart attack every time I realize I need to do something in it, because the parts that need access the most frequently: - The CPU - The Heatsinks - The CPU fan - The Power adapter They literally all require removing 95% of the components from the computer first. And that's a lot of margin for error. I made this mistake once, and I'm not going to try repeating it . :) -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNL _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.canterbury.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
