Indigo? Indi-no
Went to upgrade the hard drive today and boy was I in for a surprise. From the moment I started to pop off the bottom case, all I heard was popping and creaking from the case. I decided while it was open that I would go ahead and try to glue the bezel back together.
What appeared to be a simple crack on the side ended up being an entire shattered inside bezel (as I feared). The moment I got the front of the case off, it was cracked so bad it pretty much fell into pieces everywhere. I did end up gluing it back together, but I was still missing pieces that fell deeper into the case. Since I didn't think the case would survive being completely removed, I decided to just write this one off as a loss. I hate to do that to a working Mac, but the parts it needs would cost more to locate than the machine is worth.
My friend is considering taking it from me and turning it into a iMacquarium. :I
