my laptop fell off my passenger side seat onto the floor. i just noticed that the screen is offset to the right a little bit. when it is closed the screen is shifted a tad bit over with a slight overhang. im wondering if its something i can fix by taking it apart. i wanted to ask you guys before i took it apart because i dont have alot of experience with loose technology. any ideas?

I'm such a redneck when it comes to things like that, that I'd probably just knock it back over the same way it got crooked in the first place. But, that's just me.

You didn't say which model Mac notebook you have.... In any event, go to this site and look up your year model Mac notebook, then look for the step by step instructions they have for changing the display. You can use those instructions for dismantling the display and make it straight again.
