[CUBE] OT: tool for tightening the iMac 'neck' joints

[Trev Copland]

The thing you're talking about has three holes in a triangular pattern. 
This, however, is not the correct tool. There is no such tool. The only 
adjustment that can be made to the display is done by tightening some 
screws under the panel. I wouldn't try to fix this yourself, though, as 
you're likely to end up loosening the screws so it'll always tip. Never 
the less,  this only helps if the display is tipping to a particular 
side, not if it "sags." The neck should be replaced under your 
warranty, however, depending on the severity of the problem. If it is 
outside though, it'll be expensive - replacing the neck requires that 
every component of the machine be stripped off. Nothing is more labor 
intensive on an iMac.

As a side not that every FP iMac owner should know, DO NOT OPEN THE 
BOTTOM past the RAM access plate (shiny disc with the Apple logo on 
it). The machine dissipates head through the metal cage inside of the 
base. If you don't put everything together with a new layer of 
conductive goop, you'll be in trouble.

First post to the list, by the way - I've been reading in the wings for 
some time. I just got another Cube, having sold my original beauty a 
while ago (sadly). She's running as by web server and looking beautiful 
at the same time.
