    Hi Just got my laptop.

    Silly question, how the heck to I remove the express dummy card from the M1330.

    manual is useless, I have wifi latches, no latch to push it out, the damn thing will not come out!

    Is there a trick to it ???

    From reading another thread I think I remember that you have to push in firmly, but I am not positive. give it a whirl and report back!

    Yeah, push it in real firmly :)

    Well I can report, that I do not have 1 cosmetic issue whatsoever. Everything is perfect, no bends, dents, things out of place, nothing wrong whatsoever. Everything from hard drive bay, etc, sits perfectly in line.

    It sits flat on the desk, rock solid, not one bit of wobble.

    I simply cannot find anything wrong with the build, and I have looked high and low :)

    I am very happy, once though I figured out Norton Internet security and stopped it blocking my network, that is. That took me a little while to find where to stick my router IP
