Six clicks: Essential PC, smartphone and tablet repair tools | ZDNet
Summary
The mainstay of PC repair has to be the #2 size Phillips screwdriver. While Ive stripped and rebuilt countless PCs using the screwdriver fitted onto a Swiss Army Knife or Leatherman multitool, I recommend getting your hands on a good screwdriver. My personal screwdrivers of choice are Wiha slimline insulated range, Not only are these 10,000 Volt tested and have a 1000 Volt certification (which is a feature that can save your life), but they have been designed specifically to be able to access screws that other insulated screwdrivers cant. While Wiha makes a whole range of screwdrivers, if you want to get inside something like the new MacBook Pro or iPhone youll need special tools to help you defeat the proprietary screws. For these I recommend that you head over to iFixit which has a fantastic range of tools to help you get inside pretty much everything.
