Einleitung
[THIS GUIDE IS CURRENTLY A WORK-IN-PROGRESS! ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!]
This will be a written guide to demonstrate the process of removing the back panel. Eventually, I'll include how to get to the hard drive, DVD reader, and motherboard.
If you're looking to just remove the back panel, this video by Joel Gulick @ Computer Solutions, Inc (Savannah, GA) goes straight for the point and has clear steps (aside the fairly poor audio quality).
Otherwise, there's a great video by Gadgetools Unlimited that demonstrates the removal of the back panel, and shows how to access the RAM (inherently, the motherboard) and hard drive.
