☐ Take a good look at the laptop you are evaluating. Start by looking for:
- A floppy drive
- Missing cover plates from the back of the laptop
- Missing battery or optical drives
- Missing keyboard or keys
- Cracked case parts or broken hinges
- Damaged ports
- Visible screen damage
- This appears as hairline cracks or dark splatter-like marks inside the screen.
- Oxidation or evidence of liquid spills
☐ Stop here and check with your instructor if you find anything from the list. They may have you follow the Recycling or As-Is Checklist instead.
