When I used to work at the “Fruit Stand” I never had to repair those white back Mini’s thankfully, but I do remember the putty knives being around. The unibody iMac was the worse, had to pizza cutter the whole LCD off the frame to replace anything, then glue it back on!

Lol by the time I actually needed to upgrade from that mini, all the fruit stand stuff wasn't really upgradable anymore. It was really frustrating, so I jumped ship to Windows.

Those iMac screens seemed so fiddley to remove just to get access to the drives. Why won't they just bolt them in instead of using glue! (I know why, but I still don't like it)
