From what I remember, even the dell process was a testament to following instructions to the T. Having to do some steps with the battery connected, then more with it disconnected, then connected again. HP used some special screw for board locking. Lol what a wild time.
Oh yeah, now it's all pretty standardized with like the same screws for everything.
Its no longer quite as silly with the specific steps to follow, but god, is it boring as all hell to work with too lol
