[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 188249, member: 5184"] That could work. The iBook's (and PowerBook) screws are very tiny. The quality of the metal isn't any cheaper than that of other manufacturers, it's just that with such tiny screws you have to make sure to have the right kind of screwdriver, and be a bit more carefull than usual. I've dismantled a few iBooks and PowerBooks, and have put them back together without damaging a screw. The best thing is when you notice a screw that sits too tight, apply some pressure on the screwdriver, and SLOWLY try to turn. Check [url]www.pbfixit.com[/url] for a new set of screws. [/QUOTE]
