A particular problem is a capacitor that blows, which is easy to spot.

Maybe you can take the palmrest plastics off of your laptop and have the keyboard attached but not secured to the motherboard to take a look at where the noise is coming from. This is assuming of course that your warranty is expired.

Have fun!
Just curious but did you have the capacitor problem with the 270s? We had a buttload of those and then the 280s had a random overheating issue.

And Daseal, Mario Teaches Typing is awesome. He'd kick the shit out of Mavis Beacon.
