I need suggestions.
I've got a live little bug inside my macbook pro screen for 2 days now.
I've tried to film it using my iPhone, but it ain't that good. :(
Should I try to open it? o_O
C'mon, looking for ideas here! :)
edit: Here's an alike video.
It's not moving anymore for now... I hope it isn't dead! Right when I've found a possible solution along with many ideas on that link: suction cup; monitor off and lamp on to attract it out; scratching the screen (made it move a little); and got to know there's no warranty for this "feature" (also known as bad design in a jargon).
edit2: It's been "fixed" on its own. Just check the answer.

I really wonder if he/she was born inside your Mac :) – Mehper C. Palavuzlar – 2010-02-24T17:56:35.010
@Phoshi I could try, but I don't know what it eats. That is, if it's still breathing... – cregox – 2010-02-24T20:10:00.363
You could stick a vaccuum on low power at your case, see if you can suck it out? – Phoshi – 2010-02-24T20:35:29.013
7@Phoshi - does that constitutes as debugging ? – Rook – 2010-02-26T00:42:58.203
@Idigas: Yes! You do know the original computer bug was a moth that was found in an early computer, right? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_bug#Etymology
