Hey all. Guess who's just been given a mac mini, which quite honestly is the best computer I've ever touched! However all is not well, this mini seems to be getting a bit hot and bothered - ie: when doing anything intense it will get hot then shutdown; I understand this is actually a feature.
I want to open the case to try and remove some of the dust that I'm assuming is the cause of this problem, but I've never delved inside a mini before so am a little bit warey about how to go about it. The general concensus seems to be to use a putty knife or 2 or to cut & strip an ethernet cable then loop the wires around the tabs in order to release them. However, when I've found posts about how to do this, they've been quite pictorial so they haven't been that helpfull. I'd be interested in hearing if any totally blind person has ever managed to open the g4 1.42 mac mini without scratching it, using either of the above methods. I should be fine locating everything once the case is open, its just the actual removal of the casing that is worrying me a little. As always, any response what so ever would be great. Thanks for reading, Ben. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com.
