Eugene's observations

Based on the faults I see coming through my workshop, here are some suggestions to minimise repair bills.

• Open/close the lid holding the centre of the display or with a hand on each corner.
• Yanking the power cable by tripping over it overstrains the power socket.
• Use mains power whenever possible.
• Keep food and drinks more than a metre away from the keyboard.
• Shut down fully each day rather than closing the lid and putting it to sleep.
• Make sure the outlet air vent is unobstructed.
• Make sure the inlet air vent can not suck up carpet dust or linen lint.
• Don't press the power on/off button too hard.
• Follow Eugene's housekeeping schedule periodically.
