A pair of screws fell out of the bottom case for an old Titanium Powerbook.
Does anyone know the specs for these screws?

(they look like metric; 2mm wth ~20 threads per cm; 8mm length)

Any advice on finding replacements?

Thanks,
Matt

Good to hear of your positive experience with pbparts.

We were able to go into a nearby Apple Store and they also put in replacement
screws without charge. (I think that, when available, the local apple stores
are a great point of contact for service -- its too bad that they haven't
done much internationally yet)
