iBook G3 stripped screw
Post Body

Hey everyone, Iโ€™m working restoring an iBook G3 (700mhz)I was working on removing the bottom case, but I noticed the middle Torx screw is stripped. Just no way to get out with a conventional screwdriver. I donโ€™t have a Dremel or anything where I can cut a notch to turn it either, and would likely damage the bottom case trying to do so, anyway. Does anybody have any tricks for getting that screw out? I really love this iBook and would like to get it working again.
