Today we're fixing up a PowerBook 540c, a beautiful laptop from 1994 that brought many firsts to both Apple and the entire computer industry, but with a fatal flaw - the most comically under-engineered hinge in the history of Mac laptops.
Thanks @ThisDoesNotCompute for letting me include some footage from your similar PowerBook 145B fix!
