[ale] OT New thread -new iMacs- Joe's question

[ale1 at cybertechcafe.net (Nathan)]

the only hardware 'tinkerin' that I've done on Apple hardware was a RAM 
upgrade on a 12" iBook.  It required removing the keyboard (watch the 
little ribbon cable), removing a small metal cover (use a very small 
phillips screwdriver) and then removing the airport card (I believe).  
The hardest part was finding the RAM and not stripping the little screws 
that cover the airport card.
