Thursday de-gunk

Gutted open the Thinkpad beauty, hoping to cleaning it good, and see if I could reduce a bit its thermal emanations... It was sort of a deception, I mean,the cleaning process went well, but the whole thing wasn't that messy on the inside to begin with; so the noise and heat emanation level won't be getting any better...

ITOH, opening this little baby proved to be nearly as a PITA as it is to open a PowerBook, well, not close really, but it has its particularities, like the small plastic covers for the front screws... I'm positive those babies will peel off after I have take them out and placed back on its place...

But, the worst thing is that the poor little laptop it isn't a degree cooler after the whole operation...
