Good afternoon all,
My room mate's Macbook pro is water damaged. She sent that to apple store for repair. They asking $1200 + for repair. She can't afford to pay that much that's for sure. She called me if it's okay to pay that much for repair. I said NO!! You can buy used ones almost same price. I think it's not worth to spend that much. She recently lost her job too. I've given her my windows laptop so she can do her job hunting or whatever. I told her no promises but I'll try. I've fixed other room mates's windows laptops before but not Mac. She won't fix it sometime soon. I said I'll try but but no promises.
watching couple of videos on youtube. it looks complicated but I'll give a try.
What tools I need apart of these items below ? Where you buy them locally for quick shipping ?
So far I need these tools
P5 Pentalobe screw driver
Isopropyl Alcohol
what else ?
Thanks
First question is, is it actually water damaged or is that just what Apple said?
