| Field Strip a Macintosh LC in Under 30 Seconds |
Posted by: olePigeon on 2024-02-16 12:59:50
Apparently back in the 1990s, one of the demos a sales person would do is strip an LC in about 30 seconds to demonstrate the repairability of the machine.
Seems like this could be a fun challenge to do at meetups. Disassemble and reassemble an LC in working order in under a minute.

The horror! won't anyone think of the poor brittle case tabs! 😛 |

Nope. There's no way those plastic will support such vigour these days. I'm always very, very, gentle with my LCs. |

Interestingly I don't find the LC cases to be that brittle, of all my LC's I only have one where a tab has broken from normal use and one more where a internal tab was broken during shipping (But has been fine for years after glueing it back on) Wonder the if a different plastic mix was used on the EU ones |

The Quadra 605 cases are much more brittle than the "classic" LC style ones. |
