I’ve just finished getting my laptop set up the way I like it, including maximising the RAM and upgrading the screen. I opened it up to use it, and the screws on the hinge tore through the plastic.

To top it off, the plastic on the bottom of the laptop, the side that’s been removed here, has also broken.

My wife definitely didn’t drop the laptop while she was tidying up though…

    That sucks.

    Happened with my previous laptop and couldn’t find replacement parts unfortunately.

      I’ve managed to find a replacement base, as that was broken too, but not this part. It looks like I should be able to fix it with some epoxy though :)
