So, I've manage to strip at least one and maybe more screws in the
memory access panel on my Powerbook. Anyone have any experience in
getting these little bastards out? I followed Apple's instructions at
first using a #00 Phillips screwdriver. When that failed miserably, I
read a bit on the Internets and it seemed people had luck using a #000
Phillips so I gave that a whirl. Still no dice. I probably stripped
the screws bad enough using the #00 that the #000 wasn't going to
help. So I'm looking for ideas for try #3... I have an appointment at
the Apple Store tonight for them to look at it, but I'm expecting a
quote of $100+ just to get the screws out. For that I can just buy a
set of micro screw extractors and replacement set of screws I'm sure.
