This sounds good and thanks to all who responded. I have passed this
info along to the requester who will be getting the MacBook next week.

Major disassembly.

In the Macbook the slots are very easy to get to. Just two levers in the
battery compartment.

A friend who has used Windows forever is looking to move to an Apple
