The top case collided with furniture... trouble ensued.

Easy straight forward process. Biggest problem I encountered (concocted by myself) was mixing the screws.

Don't mix the screws.

Do be careful with the hinges, they are fragile.

Do not rip the hard disk cable (have done that once before... Not fun running the machine from a clone via USB while waiting for the replacement cable).
