Without looking, a new student in our lab slid his SD memory card into the CD
slot on his iMac by mistake. And it went all the way in. Kinda makes you wonder
how many people have done that before, as they’re adjacent to each other.
Anyway, is there any known way to go about extracting it
Maybe. It depends how good your tech was at “Operation.”

coming into the unit. Doesn't look like there's any way yo insert anything
into it. Certainly no way to 'get lucky' and grab it or have it 'fall
out'. Argh. I knew this would happen one day.

long narrow short-bristled brush strip on each side of the slot (not rubber).
So you can part it and look behind it if you’re delicate.
