    Hey guys, I'm a major geek and I'm really nostalgic. I've always wanted an FW and a Z series but now they discontinued and I'm so gutted I didn't buy them when they were new. I've been looking around and checking a few used ones out but it seems people like to treat their laptops like trash. Long story short I want a spotless one and now that's not possible.....or is it. I had an idea, Sony stocks spares for their laptops up to 5-6 years old don't they? So the question is can I still buy old Sony parts in brand new condition from them and can I buy every part needed to literally assemble my own Z and FW? I know it sounds retarded and insane but I just need to have them it's not even about using them I just want them. I'm prepared to pay for the parts even if it's going to be expensive but again, it this actually possible?

    Thanks guys and any help on my unusual quest is appreciated.
