I've done this with the two MBP's we have at our house. It was very simple (around 8 screws). Just make sure you have a tiny screwdriver set (like those used for glasses). You can usually search for macbook screwdriver and find ones that

This looks pretty useful. I'm curious why you used class to store the "category". Wouldn't it be cleaner to store it in"data-category" or just Javascript? Or is that less browser compliant? Overall a great script though.

Rhapsody. No ads, access to tons of stuff, on demand. You have the choice of picking and choosing songs, or just playing on a radio (Pandora style). And I think it's the same price as Pandora's ad-free service (which makes me wonder why
