Ain't that the truth! I have no idea why current manufacturers make it so hard on the customer to swap out memory, SSD or even the battery! Heck, seeing how the harddisk is now nothing more than just another type of "memory" which fits into a slot, you would think they'd make those slots easily accessible. Instead, it gets harder with each notebook generation. What's up with that?
