Toshiba R500, Crash Baby!

Just received an email from Paul in the UK, with some nice pictures of his broken laptop… Here's how it happened.

Am very sad to report the death of an eighteen-month-old Toshiba R500
Portege, accidentally dropped from near shoulder height onto a solid
marble-tiled floor! Ouch!

total damage approx GB£600, as it needs:
* new top and bottom casing
* new DVDRW/CD
* new keyboard
* new display
* lots of stickers (yes, they have to replace all those stickers too!)
* a lot of labour

It was arguably not worth repairing as it was only had 1 year 6 months
old and would only cost GB£900 or so to replace; we'll let the insurance
company decide!

A Vaio would have broken into a thousand pieces from this height.
