[Ti] Dent in the lid

[Bear]

Hi Chris,

I have had to take apart my G3 "Wallstreet" screen several times. The 
screen cables were damaged (both sides) by a less than careful 
technician from a local Apple dealer who was replacing the screen 
clutches. It is an involved and very fiddly procedure. It requires 
removal of the keyboard, parts of the main casing and then complete 
removal of the screen. After that you have to peel off the plastic 
sticky back covers which hide the screws, then that you have to be 
REALLY careful not to break the securing lugs in the plastic casing of 
the screen as they are very fragile. I shall go no further because it 
gets worse and you can read all about it on the web. I have the address 
somewhere.
Needless to say I resolved my screen problem ie not working at all but 
I did cause damage to those lugs. It was cosmetic only but I suggest it 
is best left to Apple.
