I've got to chime in here for a second. As of a few weeks ago, I upgraded
the processor, memory, hard drive and replaced the keyboard all in one
swoop. It really wasn't that difficult as long as you've got some patience
and you're careful.

The main thing that sticks out in my mind is to get a good set of
instructions and to use a big piece of tape to hold the screws so that you
can remember the exact order you took them out and maybe a pad with some
details of what goes where just in case.

I guess if you've got money to burn you can pay MCE to do the work but heck,
in this economy, every bit counts!

Just my .02,

Chris
