When looking at the display on a PowerBook G3 Series (Bronze keyboard) or PowerBook (FireWire) I notice a row of small vertical marks on the display. What causes these marks, and are they permanent?
DISCUSSION These marks are the result of the edges of the keycaps on the keyboard touching the glass that covers the display due to the tight tolerances required by the slim profile and lighter weight of the PowerBook. These marks are not permanent and can be removed by gently wiping off the display with a clean cloth. Periodically wiping off the keyboard and display will reduce the visibility of any marks on the display. If the keyboard in your PowerBook has been lifted up to install RAM (or for any other reason), you should check to make sure that the keyboard is properly seated. When reinstalling the keyboard make sure all the tabs on the leading edge are fully inserted into their corresponding slots. The instructions on how to remove and replace the keyboard are in the Help Center included in the Help menu. Look for the keyboard instructions in the Installing Memory section under the Help menu, in article 58325: " PowerBook G3 Series (Bronze keyboard): Upgrading Memory ", or in article 58582: " PowerBook (FireWire): Upgrading Memory ".
