what you guys are failing to appreciate is my total lack of mechanical and technical skills. I take things apart and can't get them together. And it's not because I'm a "gurl"; and it's not because I don't try--it because I suck at it. I call Daughter No. 1 for anything requiring detailed hand-eye coordination, tools, or mechanical aptitude.

I'm willing to learn new skills, but by now I know my limits!

And UT . . . for inner cleaning I usually use prunes. But I think that would make kind of a mess in my 'puter!

!BEEP! !BEEP! !BEEP!

(I'm backing up--get it? hardehar)

Ever see a diary with a little clasp to hold it shut?
Opening and closing your Dell is that easy. You're not really taking it apart. At 2 1/2 years old, you might have one that has catches and you don't even need a screwdriver to open it.
