Community thoughts on doing a detailed "how to" post with a pics for upgrading and making changes to these laptops. Thought is covering ram, hard drive, displays, keyboard and such. Would cover doing reinstall of windows, prep before doing changes and for things like LCD upgrades how to find proper panels. It would take me some effort to put it together and i do fear some people may get it over their heads attempting it. This said I seem to see the same questions come up over and over but worded differently like doing windows reinstall or dual booting or upgrade my ram/hard drive/display/ keyboard etc.

 

I understand there are several models but they share the same base design and the sub numbers per model are just variations like ram amount or hard drive type/size as example. Would like to hear some thoughts before I do this.
