    I don't know what to do with my dead 6860. The GPU is shot and I've baked it so many times that it is officially scrap to me. Does anyone need any of the working parts? RAM, network card, keyboard, cd drive, lcd, speakers, power supply, battery?

    I'm not exactly sure how to dispose of it and I've taken good care of it until now so I'd be happy to see the parts help someone with their laptop. I had a good run with ol' "Blue".

    I'd love to try and fix the GPU with a full reball for free. I have another one here I'm working on so all I'd need is the motherboard. Hopefully I can get 1 out of 2, if I fix both of them of course you can have your motherboard back. :)
