With the case on it's side, and the screw loosened, the purchase points for sliding the case to the rear are the indentations in the flexible hooks at the rear of the lid. Position the box on it's side, front against your body. Thumbs in the indentations, four fingers on the the sides around the rear of the case. Push in with the thumbs first and then and toward the rear with the thumbs and squeeze toward your body with the fingers. The first time the lid is removed it is very tight, and the flex hooks are stiff. The more you do it the easier it gets. Those with challanged hand grip strengh may need an extra set of hands or a "Charles Atlas" friend. Ooops, I gave my age group away. But at 74, I can do it. Although the first time was a real challange. Ernie -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
