What remains... 2007-2010.
Today I was sick and stayed in bed all day. I wanted to go to Uni, but I couldn't drag my sick feverish self out of bed. Not to mention that I almost fainted as I lost my vision for about 5 minutes. Was not too fun, and therefore my friend Stuart summoned me to stay in bed all day. Since I was afraid to be alone for a little while after my nearly fainting episode, Stuart stayed in my room for a while, and I decided to let him take apart my old, broken computer, piece by piece and show me what the inside looked like, and what kind of work goes into a computer.
First he took out the RAM and other stuff, and removed the bottom plate off the computer, removed the screen... and then things went from there. He pulled plastic apart and wires out and broke my computer down to the core components. It was a very entertaining thing to watch (and made me a little sad to really be saying goodbye to the computer I loved for 3 years)... and the interior of a computer is so cool looking and it all seems so complex. It was so awesome watching him take it apart, and I couldn't help but take some photos after it was pulled apart...
I forgot to take a before photo, but here is what it looked like before:
This here is the motherboard and is the root of all evil.. well, at least, it was the part that died on me and caused me to have to buy a new computer.
Metal and plastic framing that Stuart pulled apart in order to open up the computer and the screen.
Here is the screen, and keyboard and all the other various wires and such.
The amount of screws that had to be removed in order for this to take place...
And that is all. My old dell is no more. It will (sort of) be missed.
