I just got the cover off and it was not easy finding all the screws. However, inside I don't see anything obviously wrong. The Ram sides didn't seem snapped in and I just pressed on them and heard a little click from both sides. I might just close it up and try running it. It was mostly to add to my experience in opening a laptop and peering inside.

I have an Asus desktop and a netbook so this was just something I was going to throw away, but made a good learning lab for me.

Back to Win 7--I'm just curious and wanted some options in case there was enough to warrant a switch. Just gathering data!!!!
