Awesome! :smile: I was thinking of studying Chemistry at University as well, but in the end I went for Electronic Engineering because I liked the course and I didn't get the required grades for Chemistry or Physics... Thankfully, all is well for me now and I had 3 years which I thoroughly enjoyed! :smile:

Ooh, are you possibly going to apply to Cambridge Uni in the future? Or is it just an open day to see what you think about the course/content?

I know - he is crazy though :yep:

I'm searching for things to do with what I've been studying, so in electronic engineering :smile: Nope, no disassembling acer laptops - though that will eventually happen :yep:

Awesome, that sounds good! In which case, let us know how it goes because then you'll be able to know whether you want to do physics or chemistry! :smile:
Also, if you are going to go to Oxford, make sure you get nice high grades at A Level :smile: My grades were far too low to apply for universities such as Oxford, Cambridge etc :frown:

Btw, can we please have an edit? Thanks.

I might also get some computer stuff done today as well - after all, the weather is crap outside and we were going to go out :frown:

Hmmm.... I'm hoping it's not a new motherboard that the machine will need...

Anyway, even if it was, it'd still be good disassembly practise, because of course, I need to remove the motherboard on the Acer Aspire 5742 to get to the fan. :frown:

Why did Acer make a whole series of laptops that were prone to overheating; that's the main question!

I think it is a conspiracy so that they can make money from sales of replacement laptops.......... :ninja:
