Broken 333MHz iMac G3..... UPDATE: FIXED!

I know you already got the screw off, but next time melt a bic crystal pen and jam it into the screw while it is still hot. It'll take shape of the screw, and you can use it as a screwdriver. It always works for security torx screws for me.

Also, use brasso or plastic polish to remove the paint and any scratches. you could take the broken clip from the bondi and superglue it to your grape.

Thank you for your input, but you don't seem to know much about how tightly that screw is help in place. A burnt bic pen is not strong enough to get this screw out. If a screwdriver couldn't get it out, what makes you think a peice of plastic will?
