While I love your design please, please, please for the love of all that is holy consider the lowly DCSE when you design these things. The xx30 series is such a colossal PITA to replace a system board, if for no other reasons then the cable routing, that it takes over an hour, or dang close to it, to do. Compared to say a Latitude D620 or D820 which takes about 30 minutes. Normally I wouldn't mind but if I can fit 7 calls in, in a day vs. 6 that 7th customer is going to be very happy to get his computer up and running again that much sooner.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
