  How to open iMac for RAM

  Posted by Rob Hindley on January 27, 2009 at 5:08 am

  I have recently purchased an iMac and some extra RAM.
  But I am yet to find a screwdriver that fits the screw holding the outer plate on.

  Anyone know what size screwdriver I should purchase to get the screw out (or any quicker tip to get the plate off)?

  Thanks for your reply.

  I do have a precision set and after further web searching found that the screw only needs loosening (not removing) then use paper clip to gently lever off the cover.

  Worked like a charm!
