hell, the worst part for me is getting my fingers in tight spaces without cutting them on something sharp.Aye, this is exactly why there's always a box of band-aids alongside my screwdriver when I'm putting together a computer!
Also, retrieving one of those damned screws when you drop it behind the motherboard, or down into an impossibly deep crevice in the case that looks too small for the screw to have fallen into, yet somehow it did -- that's a royal bitch. And is the sole reason I invested in an extra tool: A
screw grabber. This one little device makes life so much easier, and in fact turns out to be useful for more than just dropped screws!
