    In the past, I have replaced 2 keyboards from 2 different laptops. Each of those only required me to lift off a cover near the top of the keyboard, and then un-screw 3 screws. I recently purchased a used laptop, and want to replace the keyboard. The laptop came only with a user manual, but no repair information. I can't see anywhere on the top front of my SONY PCG-8QEL (VGN-A150) where I can pry, or lift-up on any kind of a cover from the top front of my laptop. Does anyone know how to remove this keyboard? If you know what to do, could you please post it here, or send me an email. Thank you very much.
