    Does #ComputerRecycling have any DDR3 for sale? I recently got a computer with 2 slots but only 1x4G, would really like to upgrade to 2x8G...

    Could use some power supplies too, if they're still available...

    In #Kitchener ( #WaterlooRegion, Ontario, Canada) we have #ComputerRecycling run by @chaslinux

    There used to be a large DIY repair component (with tech support from staff), but I think that due to a combination of Covid and funding cuts it's all been scaled back.

    It's possible that #ComputerRecycling has a similar laptop with a cracked screen. Then someone (Hi Charles!) could put your stickered screen on a working body, swap the drive, and it's fixed.

    What make and model is your laptop?

    (@kwlug used to hold laptop fixit parties at #ComputerRecycling on weekends, where we'd frankenstein together working parts from two or three broken laptops to make one working laptop. Don't know why that stopped...)

    Any idea what part of your laptop is dead?

    A few years ago at a @kwlug swap meet someone brought in a "dead" laptop. The only thing wrong was a dead battery that was trying to charge, but pulling so much power the laptop wouldn't boot. I removed the battery and it ran just fine, and it was my daily computer for years.

    It's possible #ComputerRecycling at #TheWorkingCentre has parts to fix it; if not, they have cheap (used) computers and laptops.
