Mac Mini

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

What is the best way to open a Mac Mini?  Putty Knife?  CAT5 cable?  I had good luck with some credit cards, and finally found a good use for a Blockbuster card.

Mission Accomplished:  512 MB to 1 GB RAM upgrade (The G4 Minis max out at 1 GB).  Opening the Mac Mini was not as difficult as I thought it would be.  While the Mini is unnecessarily difficult to open, by Mac standards it isn’t bad.  The G3 iBook hard drive upgrade was definitely the most time consuming (and annoying).
