Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello Family, I've been posting messages for help and I hope I'm not the first person to have had this (laptop) problem. After owning two Toshiba laptops and having replaced the harddrive on the older Toshiba-2130, how it the hell does somebody get help on "gracefully" opening the case of a new laptop. This reminds me of the first time I played "Rubiks Cube", after about 15 minutes I told my buddy: "HEY, hand me that hammer over there, I'll fix this f..... thing right now!" Well that's not an option, nor is the one to drop the Toshiba-1715 off at a certified outlet, the machine came shipped with Windows_ME but I like the way it runs with FreeBSD just fine. I picked up a 20-gig laptop drive after last Thursday's FreeBSD meeting in Berkeley and have been prying on this laptop ever since. I'm at work now, (yes I know it's a holiday) on a "trade" for some time off and figured it would have been a perfect day to replace the harddrive but couldn't do it.
