It is easy to watch a bunch of youtube videos and fall for the “easy Macbook screen replacement” or “Macbook screen Replacement under 10 minutes” titles, thinking that screen replacement of Macbooks is a straight forward job.

We love these 27″ ‘thick’ generation iMacs, they are such reliable machines.
