    Alright so my buddy has an Extensa that has completely crapped out. I have a Acer 3680 (without the webcam) That I am basically rebuilding. The LCD back cover is really scratched up and such, and I was wondering if i could swap it out with my buddy's dead Extensa's back cover.. They look identical besides the Extensa is black and has a curved keyboard..
    So im curious of a few things actually.
    1) Can the back covers be swapped with the extensa?
    2) Can the wrist wrest and keyboard be swapped extensa?
    3) If i bought a 3680 bezel with the webcam built in, would i be able to hook the webcam up to my motherboard and would the bezel and backcover fit my current notebook?
