I got one dead pixel.... the screen massage didn't work. So I thought.... what about the back of the screen massage ?
But how can one take apart that f*****g top cover ?
I removed the four screws and it still doesn't want to move.... anybody got a solution ? Or better, some photos and so on, as I don't want to break apart my beautiful brand new TiBook's screen !!!
My screen thanks you in advance

I'd be careful, that sounds like a "warranty voiding" action.

Huh!!! I think they mean massage it through the top cover, not take off the top cover and massage it! I sure hope you haven't gotten any further in your endeavours.

That's not likely to help if the 'traditional massage' didn't work. Also I wouldn't recommend taking apart the back of the screen. Just live with it, it's easier than to live with paying for a new back cover or screen ... (a friend of mine nearly ruined his wallstreet back cover when trying to get the Apple logo to glow--it did glow, BTW, but he had a large dark spot on the screen afterwards).

If you don't take this advice, start sweating

Sounds like I'm not gonna get rid of that stupid "I am one little dot that's not working, while U got millions of 'em in your huge and gorgeous screen.... but U can only see me".
It's not bad.... but I would have liked to say "everything is perfect, no flaw, I'm truly and deeply happy
Thanks anyway
