I've got a significant amount of desktop experience, built my past 2 and have been swapping parts since I was in middle school.
Laptops however are foreign territory to me in regards to the hardware. I've got a gateway computer with vista on it and its painfully slow due to not having much memory. I've also got a broken HP laptop with XP on it (about a year and 3 months old). I'm planning on taking apart the broken one first to get a feel for taking apart a laptop and then this gateway and adding the memory from the HP to the gateway.
Is this possible? Like I said I'm unfamiliar with laptops so im not sure if memory would be proprietary in size or something that would make it not fit properly. This is also assuming that its the same type of memory...
