[QUOTE="bill7624, post: 76421"] Help! I dropped my 4 week old baby. My 15" Powerbook was pulled off my desk and hit the floor. It landed on the tip of the left lower base. It has a crimped-in left outer edge. The small lateral edge screw held. The top flat portion is also crimped-in leaving a 2-3 millimeter gap along the front outer edge. Mercifully, the screen does shut and lock into position. Are there any links to a set of instructions on how to disassemble the laptop? Is crimping out the aluminum something a knowledgeable lay-person should undertake? What components are in the left corner? Should I pay through the nose and let some emotionally unattached technician attempt this feat perhaps not doing an adequate job? [/QUOTE]
