I bought mine used on eBay. and upgraded the HDD and RAM and it is working perfectly. But I recently noticed that the palm rest is not perfectly seated at the front edge and is raised by roughly 2mm. (⅛in.) I have tried refitting the palm rest, but it hasn’t made any different. It is possible that it was like that before I fitted the RAM and I just hadn’t notice, so it could be the result of an earlier intervention. The machine still works OK and the lid closes, so it isn’t a big deal, but it is a bit annoying that such a well engineered device doesn’t go back together exactly as it should. Any suggestions?
Sort of solved it . . . . . Get the left hand side located first and jiggle it about a bit and the palm rest will fit back neatly. But it isn’t immediately obvious how you shouls go about this.
