Before you point it out, I'm fully aware my fly is unzipped in this video. :(

As this business matures, I see more and more tools designed & marketed towards repair technicians. This is cool. I don't have to run 20 blocks to an art supply store to buy spatulas anymore to open an iPad - I can just order some ipad opening tool on eBay from 1 of the 100000 people selling them. I don't have to custom order adhesive from 3M or Scotch and pay out the ass for it, I just google macbook adhesive and wow.. 99999 vendors are selling something made just for me. Cool!

With these new tools, unfortunately, comes some crap - and a lot of it costs good money. Crap you DON'T NEED. Even if you have the money for it - don't spend it.

Well funded businesses often fail because they forget the concept of buying what they NEED to get a job done. They buy what seems "proper", they buy what would "be nice to have;" and that shit ADDS UP QUICK!

Don't buy what isn't necessary, but if you feel the absolute need to give away your money, at the very least, give it away where it'll do some good. Send it to me. :-)
