[QUOTE="G-Mo, post: 1404718, member: 242569"] You can turn the computer on by removing the bottom case and shorting the power circuit on the logic board with a small flat head screwdriver or pen knife. The drop likely damaged the top case, but it's also quite likely it damaged the connector to the top case on the logic board. If this is the case, both the top case and logic board need to be replaced. [/QUOTE]
