Be careful where you push. That graphics chip is right under the hard disk. When I was trying to get the backlight to work, I pushed down too hard and broke the hard drive. The hard drive will bend much easier than you'd think.

Why didn't you think of that two years earlier! This solution was too easy! It does not count! I demand at least one paragraph about soldering! Punch holes in the carton for ventilation! Buy Mom a new screen, the old one is blurry! And don't touch my poor Mac LC, it's not a fax machine! Insert unhelpful witty comment here! :-)
