Can anyone confirm that this solution works? Why a strip of metal (Could cardboard or some other material be used)? What size of an object is needed to make the RAM connect?

Can the person who wrote it confirm it? I have done it 2x, and have a few pictures. Perhaps Ill post them on my site later today. The first time, I used a strip of metal, and the second time, I used a tightly rolled up piece of paper. The paper method turned out to be more stable, as the metal caused the door to warp a bit. --breaklog

OK, I have not been able to get the pictures I took (at least not yet), but I did find someone else who did something similar, with a rolled up piece of paper this past may on thinkpads.com. Link --Breaklog 02:55, 8 October 2006 (CEST)
