I was sure something like this'd exist. And laptops can be so horrible to take apart; that they're one of the few places I'll set my humbug aside and prefer video to text/static images in a how to.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Are you trying to figure out how to do the teardown yourself, following some idiot's youtube guide, or is that what the service manual says to do?
Unless it's #3, I'm 99% sure Sammy has successfully obfuscated the correct way to do it.

Well, I've been into the laptop before to upgrade the hard drive. I was a bit mystified as to how to get the bottom cover off (hide the screws under the adhesive rubber feet, yeah, that's a good idea). In first working on this laptop, I was chatting with Samsung support. Trying to find the correct manual is a flipping nightmare.
Support actually told me, "I'm sorry, you cannot upgrade the hard drive in this laptop."
me: "You have got to be shitting me? Are you serious?"
There was a long pause in the chat Finally I was sent a link to the manual... wrong manual. It took me 3 hours to get the correct one.

Nothing for your model (or anything with the same chassis) on Youtube? I'm a bit surprised by that since I've never had trouble finding multiple videos for anything I wanted to take appart.

There was something on youtube, and they were griping as well. I just could not believe the approach.

I take it just using an external USB keyboard wasn't an option?
I forget I'm using a laptop at home, between the external keyboard and 22" monitor.

You really contemplated buying a car that's called Killed In Action?

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I once had a netbook that could use 2GB of RAM, but I tolerated using it with only 1, because adding the second stick would've involved taking it pretty much completely apart. Had they cut out a small access panel in the back to reach the memory slots (as on most laptops) since they were facing that side, it would've been a 30-second job.

They're thinking you won't bother and will bring it in for them to deal with.

Exactly, that's why I never went ahead and did it.
That, and the fact that it's all tiny screws and flimsy plastic clips that break if you do as much as look at them the wrong way.
