This is a good example of what companies should do for us in the first place, Dell is by no means losing anything by giving away their service manuals, if you open the computer between the warranty period, you just void it and end of story. But after that time is gone, if you want to do your own repairs, you can do it without guessing or breaking stuff. I'm a hardcore Apple user & certified technician, but this one really got my attention, it's a nice looking laptop.
