Disassembling the Lenovo Thinkpad T520 is easy, which makes upgrading the device a simple procedure.

For a geek, one of the most fun things is choosing a new toy. I experienced this once again when I needed to buy a new laptop computer. The selection process was a lengthy one, during which I looked at and considered practically every model on the market.

You get this: a very personal laptop computer buyer’s guide.
