Far as I know, and it has always worked for me, earlier slot load
iMacs had pinhole for paper clip at right hand end of slot - just
look closely - its there! Cheers

Hi - I am notorious in our family for shoving the CD into a drawer so
sloppily that it slides up over the drawer and jams up the mechanical

except
taking the dad-gum thing apart and hopefully getting it back
together again.
I've been unable to find a hole for the paperclip in a slot-loading
iMac
however. The paperclip actually pushes something that makes the
drawer open
as I recall, so obviously that applies only if there is a drawer.
Clearly
this is not for normal usage but when I'm desperate I'll try anything.
