    Did Lenovo remove the easy access to RAM/HDD to all the new 2013 models of Thinkpad? Now it seems you have to pry open the cases instead of having the nice small covers on the bottom that came off with one screw in the older models. I know the T440s requires prying open but what about the other T440 series or T540 series? I really liked the ability to do my own upgrades and now it seems much more difficult without breaking little plastic tabs and such. I was always drawn to Lenovo laptops as they were easy to work on, not so much anymore it appears.
