So a neighbor, one that was helping fix my kids' bed, has an old Aptiva that he wants fixed for use. It runs ME and looks like a museum piece on the inside. It's got one of the original Pentium chips in it (that's a 586 old school, yo).
Ever try to pull the case off of an Aptiva? I hired Charles Atlas, who had this to say:
"Son of a... who built this piece of... hand me that crowbar..."
And he still didn't get the thing open. I eventually referred to a "fan" site, where, amidst cursing and notices regarding a lawsuit, I ran across the 6-fold path of opening the Aptiva case. It was amazing. So elegant, yet complicated... so inspired, yet evil.
I followed the instructions and opened that puppy up, revealing an inch worth of dust on every surface. The damn thing weighs more than my Dad, and I think I know why.
At any rate, it's now time for me to roll out the anti-static mat, make with teh nak3d, and fix this bad boy up.
