I recently replaced my 2.4G wifi with a 5G on my dell inspiron something or other laptop, and it was a major pain. Granted no ribbon cables need to be removed to replace the HDD, but to replace the wifi I had 5 delicate ribbon connectors to deal with. I only broke one. oops, but a piece of cardboard and it's as good as new. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
