You said "I'm going to take it apart as far as I can without losing track of how it goes together"... Just so you know: Dell has disassembly manuals for all of their laptops. Here is the XPS12 guide: ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_laptop/esuprt_xps_laptop/xps-12-l221x_Owner%27s%20Manual_en-us.pdf

I salute you Linus. 

 

I would still stick with my ThinkPad, it breaks my heart to see a laptop open just like that.

Even desktops with CMOS batteries aren't safe too. They're still electricity running through the computer when the battery is installed.

I doubt it, the batteries on Macbook Pro's are glued in, so are a lot of the other parts.
