The second guy said that although going into the case itself would not void my warranty, if I damaged anything in the process the warranty obviously would not cover damage that I did. If anyone can show me something from Apple in writing that says that opening the case will definitely void my warranty I'd really appreciate it, because I am on my way to the hardware store to get the tools.
