    I'm upgrading my memory and I can't seem to find a good screwdriver that doesn't strip the screws in the panel. Anyone have suggestions for a good brand? A link would be great. thanks.

    I did it with a crappy non-brand screwdriver I bought over 6 years ago...

    Just make sure your hands hold steady and you should be fine.

    Hehe, I'll tried that, and I feel like I'm putting a lot of pressure on the screen :( . I'll keep that in mind as a last resort.

    Or you can just bring your laptop with you to a local hardware store and try them out one by one.

    I'm sure you'll find something comfortable evetually :)
