Guts.
Hey fam. So on a slow Thursday out here in Arlington, I decided to repair/upgrade my laptop. The computer store wanted almost $700 to do what I wanted to do (add ram, replace the CD drive) so I told them to go take a hike. Ordered the parts online, gathered my courage and jumped in. 3 hours later it looked like this:
Oops. Not to worry. All is working again (thankfully) and I spent a total of about $190 on the repair... pretty proud of that.
Love you guys.
