Ah, I think it's because the one I was working on was a 14". I guess on the 12" the screw winds up going through to the keyboard. On the 14" it ruins the ribbon xx(OMG. I did that as well!
I was concentrating so much on the screw that I didn't notice it was the wrong one. When I turned the iBook over, I saw the keyboard bulging up in the middle. Luckily for me, it didn't seem to do any harm as the iBook still works fine. But I don't think I'll be going near any more of these any time soon
