Many screwdrivers have replaceable bits. If you find a T-15 bit, it will usually fit into the shell of a plastic Bic pen very firmly. Then use pliers on the far end to generate the torque needed; I've opened several Macs with this 'handmade' tool, and it's *very* cheap. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
