Any Mac but the compact ones are dirt-easy to open. I became very appreciative
of that a while ago when I found a IIcx trapped in a cage, jammed under a big
telly. Thanks to the easy opening procedure, I could nevertheless open it up
through the holes in the mesh and extract NIC, GFX card and SIMMs. If only
every machine were as easily opened as a Mac or PS/2.
