Hello, is it possible to see what the general criteria are that are used to @%^!* the reparability? I found them once somewhere on the ifixit website a few weeks back but cannot recover them now. It would be more transparent to keep them visible so we understand how the score are defined. Thanks, Ellen
I have a Dell Latitude- student model that is 10 years old. Is it worth repairing?
