The guy that got me onboard at Rackspace - if you know me, you'll understand how/why he sold me. Nice listen with @lewmoorman

Skip the long introduction, unless you are into that sort of thing. Lew convinced me to join Rackspace about 18 months ago - after having been a long-time customer. He and I don't always see eye to eye - but we are both passionate about Rackspace - and we are both interested in throwing away anything that is related to "this is how we've always done it" if "how we've done it before" just isn't the best way to do it. He lets me TRY things. Even if they sound "different".

This is a good look (listen) into who he is, and why he is at Rackspace. With degrees from Duke and Stanford I imagine he had a lot of opportunities - and he's made the best of this one!

How To Fix The Broken Latch On Your Last-Gen Macbook Pro, Which Is Why Your Lid Won’t Close (Noscope)

If the lid on your last-gen Macbook Pro won’t close, the cause is probably a stuck latch. A clever gentleman on the Apple support forum has invented an ingenious toothpick trick, which can help you fix this problem. We’re told that pushing the small metal pins inside the two rectangular holes just below the trackpad, you’ll eventually hear a liberating “click”, and for most people that should be it.

For me it didn’t work, until I pressed the metal pins while the Macbook was upside down. This leads me to believe that the cause of the broken latch is some cruft that’s stuck between the edge of the Macbook and the depressed latch mechanism, as I’ve tried to illustrate. Let me know if it works.

Worked for me :)
