[QUOTE="Aiki, post: 1381717, member: 151290"] WOW!!!! I just looked up changing the PRAM battery -why did I think this sounded simple? What a total NIGHTMARE!!!!!!! (and/or *major* labor expense). Disassembling what seems to be virtually every sub part of every sub part in the computer and some 150 screws of some 90 different sizes...? Multiple warnings at different stages to "be very very careful you don't break the fragile X Y and Z, -but if you do, you can get Kit A B and C") And how long should we expect the replacement to last? I haven't mentioned it here, but I had to replace the harddrive (Macbook Pro Core Duo) a month after the warranty expired and now this. [B]"Difficulty: difficult..."
