Origami fix for squishy MacBook trackpads

It seems that a good many MacBook owners are having i ues with their trackpads. I tead of the usual cri "click" that we have all come to know and love from our A le portables, they are i tead greeted by a laggardly squish. These are not the first A le notebooks to have trackpad i ue my rev D PowerBook has a trackpad button that is so stiff and noisy it can be heard acro the room, but that's beside the point. As is par for the course with most of these i ues that only seem to show up in a few machines, A le is refusing to do anything about the squishy trackpads. Fortunately for those plagued with the i ue, an enterprising paper-folding power user found that sticking some folded up paper between the battery and the trackpad fixes the i ue. Via Slashdot.
