Chapter 1 - Conversion Basics

Work Area
Prepare a suitable work area before beginning disassembly. This
should include a large, sturdy flat surface where you can work on
both machines in a comfortable position. Make sure you have ade-
quate lighting, and make provisions for grounding the provided
anti-static strap. Choose an area without carpet to limit static
buildup and to make it easier to find dropped fasteners.
Remove all external cables from the Power Macintosh before
beginning disassembly. Ground the anti-static wrist strap and
make sure you have available the large anti-static bag for the
motherboard before you begin. Resealable plastic bags or film
canisters are handy for holding small parts.
