Uhh yea, you've basically turned a nice laptop into a junk job....Thank the lord you didn't do that to a XPS Gen 2 or a 9300...


Did you use a sharpy and some sandpaper?

Just because you don't like the style doesn't mean that the work isn't good, jeesh.

Awesome custom job! I certainly like the design...it has a post-apocalyptic style to it. Unlike most people who buy premade designs (like me), you've totally made yours unique. Certain people will definitely pay top dollar for that kind of skills.

Oh....and kudos for handling all the "constructive criticism" shot your way =)

It's so true... I just don't understand how removing and/or replacing any piece of plastic "voids" a warranty... Now if I had applied AS to the heatsinks, overclocked, overvolted, pin-modded, etc., then I could see a "void"... But not with plastic that is already "known" to have issues such as not standing up to everyday use...

Never said it was a 9300... I really wouldn't want to "lug" a 9300 or XPS*.* around... The 6000 is heavy enough...
