This is one thing I appreciate ablut my Lenovo R51. It is very well
documented. I just replaced the hard drive. It's a FRU: field
replacable unit. Mechanically, a piece of cake. Now for the software

It is less than a new laptop but expensive if you ask me..
I had them fix one for me and so far so good it has been working for
almost a year with no problems after they fixed it.
