    I want a "guide" that uses a 3D generated interactive mock-up I can take apart virtually before I take the laptop apart for real.

    Can you do one like that? :biggrin:

    sep videos with walkthrough for each upgrade....ie...cpu,video,hard drive addition etc. I think that would be the most helpful....my opinion

    A video of how to replace your CPU from start to finish would be great!

    A disassemble guide with a hammer! Video may be really involved but if you have it do that, photos work. I think the way the PDF thats posted on here works good.
