MacBook Repair - Cape Town

[Peter_J]

My daughter lives in Cape Town, and her MacBook is giving trouble - by the sound of it the hard drive is finally packing up. Can anyone recommend a competent repair facility in Cape Town that won't break the bank ( ie: NOT Core please )?

Whats to repair if the HDD is failing?

Thanks Dean.

Rickster - er... the hard drive? Replace, if you wish to be pedantic. If I remember right those laptops require some bizzarely shaped screwdrivers to open up. Besides, my daughter is not technical.

Yes I know the website doesn't look great and massively professional but I wouldn't take an Apple product anywhere else.

And they won't break the bank.

That model doesnt use the pentalobe screw, it uses a normal 00 Philips screw.


DIY FTW.
