Chosen Solution
I ordered the new 15" MacBook Pro and a seperate Intel SSD (the stock BTO ones from apple are more expencive and inferior). Now I read in the teardown that Apple is using some kind of new screw. Will I need to order a special screwdriver now, so I am ready when my MBP arrives?
I’ve really enjoyed my 54 piece screwdriver set from iFixit: [linked product missing or disabled: IF145-022-1] It has everything I’ve needed to work on Mac screws including the new tri-wing. If you just need the one tri-wing driver, Here’s one on eBay for $3.95 and free shipping: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie…
I’m in the same boat as you - I need to put the 8GB from my 13" into it - really dont want to have to get the tri screwdriver just to open the bottom case. The manual says you can still remove / change the HDD and RAM, so I guess those are still phillips http://support.apple.com/manuals/#MacBoo… yay!
