i have a ton of old mac's, like centris 610's, iisi's, plusses, that sort of thing.
anyway, i snagged a lcII for a couple of bucks at goodwill, and since it has such a slim case i wanted to use it for a certain project, but the previous owner installed norton antivirus etc.. and since i don't know the person's password and all that, decided to swap hard drives with another one of my mac's, and avoid the headaches of the norton protected hd.
i have never had any need to open up any of my mac's, so was a newbie at fiddling with the inards of the mac's.
quite literally, within 3 minutes, i was able to swap not only the hd but also the fd from a iisi to the lcii, and didn't even have to use any form of tool.
man, whoever designed those machines did a damn good job.
