I'm on it! Thanks!
ugh. why can't they just leave ifixit alone?!?!
@timtomissus Ikr
@amber Maybe Ifixit should make a thing where it checks your questions or chat things before they post it?
@nytryder26 but they already do. It's called @nytryder and every other @ on here ;-). You are all doing a phenomenal job. We'll get there. The iFixit gurus are going to get iRobot all equipped to handle this.
