True, but I'm not in the habit of randomly picking a laptop off of someone else's desk and disassembling it.

Well, at my Alma Mater in Rome I heard the story that all machines in the “internet lab” (we’re talking ‘00s here) had their RAMs ripped out and replaced with older and smaller sizes, as well as all the CPUs.

Ideally admins should have chained and locked them, but a weird driver would have reduced the incidence of the problem

Would it though? They already had matching, smaller size, RAM modules. If they went this far, they could definitely get the proper tools as well.
