    Just wondering, am i able to upgrade the Q210's processor or is it hard-built into the laptop itself and impossible to get at?
    This Intel Duo is starting to age a bit...

    The Q210 does come with up to a P8600 and the cpu should be upgradable i have see pictures of the bottom of the motherboard and you can see the bottom of the cpu mount , but i have not seen any pictures of the top of the motherboard so i cannot say for certain.

    There is no service manual or dissembley guide that i have seen, but there are some exploded diagrams in the link below.
