On insurance: (a supplement to the previous comments about why it is important):
A friend of mine that has his own repair business (the friend that taught me alot of what I know about building and repairs) was working on a laptop once. He did everything exactly by the book, and is always careful about static. When the repair was done, he went to turn it back on, and the laptop was fried. It's not that he's incompetent or a bad techie.... its just that **** happens. Anyway, he has insurance and his butt was covered. If you will be doing alot of repairs, I suggest you don't touch anything without insurance.
