putty knife cracking - not a big deal.
I agree. I have the 2009 mini 2.0 and just 2 days ago had to replace one of the 4GB RAM sticks under warranty. It takes about 30 minutes max. start to finish.
It's like bizarro world where down is up and up is down. RAM upgrades should take at most five minutes. Only Apple could convince people thirty minutes and almost complete disassembly is reasonable...
Apple's not in the business of convincing anyone of anything of the sort. It's unfortunate they didn't develop it earlier, but we can at least say that customers wishing to upgrade RAM won. RAM access in Minis took a surprising leap forward in last few hardware redesigns. Apple improved the Mini to not only make it easy, but they made it drop-dead easy.
