Hi! I have the above mentioned product, and i wonder if its possible to upgrade the processor. When i purchased this laptop, the shop made a mistake, and noted this product as having an i7 - MQ type of CPU (4 cores), but when it arrived it turned out that it is just an i7 - U type (2 cores). Is it possible to change the CPU anyhow? If yes, which quadrocore CPU-s are compatible with it?
