I'm not going to walk you through the many variables that negate that risk or all the different laptop specs required for the different versions of Vida. That's your job.
And if this is what you do for a living, I don't blame you.
Looking at this, I had it as a £150 job. £200 tops. Looks like to do it properly is more. Sorry to waste your time.

I don't do it for a living but I also don't do it for free.

It's entirely possible for it to be a £150-200 job if you do the legwork yourself but there's also significant value in my tested and working complete packages for £245.

It's just another branch of car maintenance so some will happily pay a garage £100/hr for whatever reason and some will make huge savings doing it themselves.
