    • Wow. Apple went way out of the way to make it super serviceable. Way more than is normal anywhere.monospaced
    • It is impressive under the skin. Thankfully, most of us never have to open the case more than 1-2 times in a computer's life.formed
    • "Way more than is normal anywhere." well, only if you ignore most PCs which use inter-swappable components and can be built by hand.Nairn
    • ..but sure, by recent Apple standards, damn good.
      This review also seems to imply the machine won't run with the case off, which is .. curious.      Nairn
    • @Nairn, I've built dozens and dozens of PCs over the decades. I'm talking about the single-screw simplicity and similar that they did INSTEAD of JUST swappablemonospaced
    • components. Yes, building a PC is normal, but it's super hard or impossible to build one this slick with consumer parts! :)monospaced
    • All I'm doing is reiterating iFixit's conclusion by the way. Even they said it was like a gift. Jeez.monospaced
