Great question! There are a number of things that can cause your MacBook and MacBook Pro LCD screen to break. At TechRestore, we have repaired literally tens of thousands of Mac laptop screens and we're glad to present a few tips for you to help prevent your screen from breaking. The number one reason for broken screens is accidental damage - here's how to avoid accidentally breaking or damaging your MacBook Pro LCD screen:
First, get a case for your MacBook. By keeping your MacBook Pro in a padded case, you will help eliminate damage that is caused by carrying your MacBook Pro without a case. We receive systems each week where the owner dropped their MacBook after carrying it outside of the case. Get a good case and use it.
Be careful when closing the lid on your MacBook Pro. Apple recommends using both hands when closing the lid of your Mac - one hand on each corner. It sounds silly, but if you grab one corner of the screen and pull down, you can actually break the screen.

QUESTION:
What kind of ram do I need to upgrade macbook pro from 2gb to 4gb?
I've been looking around on sites like newegg because I'd like to upgrade my macbook pro. I bought it about 8 months ago and it came with 2gb but it can handle 4gb (i'm pretty sure).Do I have to get a 4gb to replace it or can I just buy 2gb to add on? And where can I get it for cheap?
ANSWER:
8 months ago would be 1st gen unibody, I believe. It's 1066MHz DDR3.Ram always comes in pairs. Right now, you have 2 1GB sticks in your computer. To upgrade to 4GB, you need to get 2x2GB sticks.
