Is it okay that I laugh because I've had the same troubles before? =)

This is one of those questions that everyone thinks they'll be embarassed
to hear the answer, but it's totally non-intuitive, ESPECIALLY when you
look at how easy most other Sun hardware is to open.

I'm sure there are probably 2 or 3 responses flying already, but here's
mine.  There are catches about an inch from the back on the left and
right sides.  I remember it as the third whole down in the fifth row.

Hope this helps out.
