How to take the mac mini apart to upgrade RAM and HDD

[jjahshik32]

Ok, so basically is the new mac mini same as the older ones in disassembly wise?

I'd like to buy one soon and upgrade the HDD and RAM.

I'd wait for some take apart pictures first.

I sure hope it's still as easy.

Stop tempting me. My next Mac might be a refurbished 9400M G mini just to see how far I can mod it. Quad core anyone?

http://www.ifixit.com/ will likely have stuff along other tear down / repair sites.
