[TriLUG] OT: Dell laptop model PP06-L

[Greg Brown]

My wife works with a guy who owns a dead Dell P4 model PP06-L (big, 
giant beastly tank of a laptop).  The motherboard is dead and he says 
that he can get a new one from Dell for a reasonable price.  He has 
asked me to replace the motherboard for him.  I have never opened a 
dell laptop.  Is this something I want to even attempt?  I have a 
feeling I'm going to have to deal with special tools, etc.  I was just 
curious if anyone had ever tried this before.
