Disassembly Notes
The screws that are used to hold the case together are torx T15. You will need one with a long shaft(About 9") to reach the two screws in the handle. One can be found on Amazon, eBay, and sometimes in hardware/automotive stores. The same tool is also used for the other compact Macs.
This tool is also sometimes known as a "Mac Cracker".
Sometimes the case is difficult to open the first time as it gets stuck together, you can usually use a wide flat object to gently pry the case open, being careful not to leave marks in the plastic.
