........I bought it unseen ..hope it works !

If not you can borrow my universal Laptop repair tool

Well that's what I'd use on a Macbook, even if it were already broken.

With a couple of friends, we whacked an old mac so thin it could be posted under the door of the technology teacher's lounge. I hate apple products
More recently I crushed a G3 HP ML350 (after setting up it's replacement) in a 30 tonne press. Guaranteed no data will be recovered from that thing!

Do us a favour eh? Next time you plan to destroy some IT kit, please make a video to show the proceedings.


You know, that might just be an idea for a new series on one of those obscure TV channels.

JPB ..Terry .. That Dell 15r i bought..its not arrived yet, but I've just clicked the link to have another look,(like ya do ) either its now obsolete or discontinued with that processor. But look at the touch screen price now!Did i get a bargain?? http://www.dell.com/uk/p/inspiron-15r-5521/pd

Even the departmental buyers of such things at work only get around 25% off and that's when they buy hundreds on a repeat basis.
So did you mean that they're giving you a processor upgrade free, gratis and for nowt in place of the one that was standard fit in that machine or is it the i3-equipped model that's gone up in price. Either way, you bagged it at sensible money.
