Belafon mentioned computer problems last night to which I suggested cleaning the gold contacts on the video, memory and cpu and testing again to see if it fixes the problem. This afternoon I had a customer drop by with a 2010 MacBook Pro that wouldn’t boot up. Dead as a brick. Since I knew this was a good candidate for the above mentioned fix I had the customer wait while I popped the bottom off, cleaned his two memory modules with an eraser and then tested it. Success! I put the base cover back on, sold him on a new battery and SSD upgrade (he’ll return when the parts are in), charged him $20 and sent him on his merry way.

I just thought it was funny that I mentioned that last night and today I recovered a system using that method. :)
