[CUBE] External DVR-105 SuperDrive With Core In Case Easily Done

[Thubten Kunga]

The main challenge to doing this is in the disassembly of the Core to  
the point where you can get at those cables. This is the secret Rich C  
has yet to reveal at

baf08b650e722a91beab25fa>. I am wondering if we have to go as far as it  
takes to put in a new processor before we can reach those cables.  
Fortunately for us, PowerLogix published a QuickTime Movie of their DVD  
instructions on how to do the disassembly last October 2002. I have my  
own copy. But I can't find where it's still posted. Do you know if it's  
still available for download Laurie or Robert Jagitsch and if so the  
URL please?
