    I would say the seller,or their techs must be keeping tabs on the forum
    Teo did that same mod a year ago
    On the bright side
    At least you don't need to listen to the annoying windows startup sound :D

    I think you just got a odd ball. I got three from that seller and they were all the same model number, just about the same condition. My third one was missing a couple more things but works well.

    ADOR , the ones that sold last week were not the same as the ones you got 2-3 weeks ago . I saved a few of the links and compared them to mine at the time and they had the same top and working. At least I did not pay a lot...$124.50 + $15.00 duty/taxes at the canada border so if I don't get it working I will just sell the bottom half and top half for what I paid for it. :)

    Yes thats true Alex but maybe someone might have a spare 19 top to trade / sell for a 18 top + $$ AND BEFORE anyone else PM's me no I am not paying a couple hundred for it when I can get the whole thing for that. :D I know I am cheap but we all are on here ;).
