    Is it hard to disassemble a DV2000T for the purpose of cleaning the internal components? Even before I read the guide ( http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4020) I have had a growing concern to cleaning the internal components but my main concern is the level of difficulty it takes to accomplish this task. (I have disassembled notebooks before but with sony and tosihba not with HP, I personally found it easy to work with both of them) Anybody have any experience?

    Level of difficulty:
    1. Knowledge of screwdriver and screws.
    2. Knowledge of turning screwdriver in screws.
    3. Don't F Up.

    Anyone know a good place to get a professional to do it. I would hate to screw something up.
