The new MacMini has arrived, with a range of serious improvements.

Some may wonder how easy it is to get at RAM (very) and drives (harder) after the earlier, and legendary, putty knife approach.

Here are two 'teardown' references:

Standard edition (single hard drive)

> www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Mac-Mini-Mid-2010-Teardown/3094/1 < 3pp

Server edition (two hard drives)

> www.macminicolo.net/macmini2010.html < 1p

Drive replacement isn't for for the faint-hearted, but there we go. Great machines.
