    I guess those Compaqs had "slotted torx"

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives#Slotted/Torx

    "A combined slotted and Torx drive screw was used in electronics manufacturing. For example, Compaq used this type to combine the benefits of Torx in manufacturing and the commonality of flat drive in field repair situations. The slot was closed on the end"


    i dont think i saw one of those. unless a phillips screwdriver worked in it too and i wasnt paying attention.

    seriously i tore everything i had apart. i disassembled them all

    big t i had a whole room full of 286's 386's and older junk. like you couldn't see


    I agree Compaq was using torx screws to keep the idiots using butter knives as screwdrivers from touching something they shouldn't.

    Regarding the Compaqs with no torx screws, were they business class or home/

    i believe they could be around the power supply but i didnt see them anywhere else.
