How to Dismantle a Mini!!

You know, that’s a point!

Some thing that ~SomeGuy~ raised earlier, that he — and many other pc owners — had frankly, built their own.

Not that that’s an option for us MacHeads, I’ll admit.

But we can at least do a little bit of tinkering.

Those of us blessed with the MacPro will, of course, will realise quite how easy it is to add bits and bobs to it. That is, after all what it’s designed for.

But if, like me, you’re the proud owner of a Mac Mini, you’ll probably be wanting to have a look at the guts, at some point; in my case, I wanted to get a stuck optical disc out.

I really wish someone had told me about holding the left button down when you boot, I really do!

My point is it’s relatively easy to do, but you’ll need to be careful; we are, after all, talking about modifying electrical equipment.

You’ll also need a couple of palette knives, a couple of old credit cards*, and a tea-towel to put your upside down Mini, on.
