Opening the Mac M0001 case

From: Mark Benson <md.benson at gmail.com> I'd urge you to try and do it without metal implements if you can C: True metal should be avoided if possible. 2 peeps could try doing it together. One person clamp on the back half, and the other dig their nails into the opening (shorter stronger naiils would be best. My nails, though grow fast, are always bending. Which is why I have to keep them very short. Ouch). You could walk around a Home Depot or equivalent and see what you can find that's say plastic and rigid enough to pry it apart. I don't see you necessarily having a lot of luck though. If you're careful and work slooooow (minimize force/acceleration), you might even be able to do it w/o marring the plastic or cracking, which I guess could be a good point to mention. You could also think about wrapping the ends of the clamp w/something, perhaps even notebook paper (thin and likely to lessen the probability of marring). In any event you can work slow and say start at the bottom of the case, pry a bit (you don't necessarily need to see a lot of movement from the getgo) then go to the top, and repeat.
