Dear net, on my query about a weird PowerBook 170 problem, where the screen image would start dancing around every so often and stop when I gave the machine a good shake, I got two long answers. Since they are instructive on how to open an PowerBook without "screwing" something to pieces, I am attaching them as a report. As it turned out, the problem was the display cable connector in the screen unit having come loose due to vibrations. Opening up the screen (by taking out the two screws that have rubber pads over them) and pushing the connector back in remedied the problem. Thanks to Keith Owens and Steven Taylor for answering!
