I just placed a preorder for one of the upcoming AMD laptops because the timing is good relative to my needs and I like their corporate ethos. While I won't need to execute this rework, it doesn't deserve the "very difficult" rating. The biggest hurdle for most people will be the equipment. A microscope makes all the difference in the world for stuff like this, but few folks have them or know where to go to borrow time on one. By contrast, I just replaced the screen and battery on a Surface Pro. That was definitely very difficult. Mostly because of glue.
