If you search on YouTube for maladamedialabs you'll find my channel. It's mostly me rescuing and resurrecting old computers. I'm a tiny channel. I don't post regularly or often, just when I've finished with a project that I've taken the time to video.
However, I got a request for help from the comments on one of my older videos. I had cleaned and resurrected an old Sony Vaio and posted my results. The machine is very old and weirdly built. The request was from someone trying to replace the CD drive for their uncle and hadn't a clue how to open up the box.
I still had the machine and quickly lashed up a 2 minute video on how to disassemble the Vaio and remove the CD drives. They were surprised and happy that I'd made a video just for them. I cut a lot of corners to get it done but I'm pleased to have helped out. It's really why I started documenting my trash bin computer rescues - to share my knowledge and save a few machines from going to waste.
