    So uh...I was unscrewing the back to install another stick of RAM..one of the screws wouldn't come out so I turned it upside down, cupped my hand over it and shook it...unfortunately it fell to the ground and now I can't find it :( In case I end up not finding it...is there a place I can buy replacement screws? Specifically it's the "upper/middle" screw on the removed lid of the S96j.

    I have extras from when I RMA'd my computer, I really wouldn't worry about it all that much but if you really want one I can mail you one (or two) if you paypal me like a dollar
