BTW the sticker is there to void the warranty if it's removed but if you're gentle with it, it goes back nicely.
One thing that caused a panic for me - I didn't get the new RAM properly seated and had a blank screen when I turned it on. Once the RAM was properly seated, it was OK.
Good Luck.

The sticker is not there on the newer versions, and in fact, a discussion with Asus left me understanding that installing a new stick of RAM does not void the warranty. They said that's because it's so easy to do, there really is no way to harm the PC by doing it.
I checked with the other companies I was thinking about purchasing from, and either it voided the warranty, or was tricky to do, or both.
