Laptop Repair (On/Off Button)

May 7, 2013 3:38 PM

I have a cheap Dell laptop (Studio series). The screen recently broke while I was in another city. In the process of replacing it, one of the wires connecting the power button became brittle and broke. The tech didn't have time to order a new button (I was flying out the next day) but said it should be fairly simple for someone to replace.

I'm trying to squeeze a few more months out of this laptop as I can't afford a new one right now. (And the 30 minute time limit on the Brooklyn public library computers is killing me!)

payscale: $30? Barter for something else?
job type: contract
