[Leaplist] help: dell laptop part needed!

[Richard F. Ostrow Jr.]

Well... the problem there is that usually the outer plastic molding is
unique to a specific laptop model. While they do sell laptop CD-ROMS (look
specifically for "slim" drives), you may find it difficult to find one
that actually fits (and interfaces) with your laptop. Your best bet is
probably e-bay.
