Here, Jamey is beginning on brain surgery. Before starting make sure you remove the stylus, as various parts interlock with it.! We don't recommend you take your unit apart,, particularly outside of a properly grounded lab environment.

First the screws come off, then one gently prys the side open a bit.

Gently prying the case open on its side...

And again further up the side. Various pieces interlock, so this isn't as easy as Jamey makes it look.

Having freed the back, you have to look out for the interior cables.

Almost done...

Front lifted away from the back.

Ahh... Open flat on the bench.

Running X, xterm, scribble, xeyes, etc. I modified some X resources to make xterm's scrollbar usable. Twm has also seen some tuning of its configuration file.

xcalc is usable unchanged from the original.

Twm menus: I should use a bit bigger font.

Using scribble, 'ls' in xterm. We understand how to enable scribble to scribble in any keyboard input window, via the mechanism Bob Scheifler used in "Hands off X!"

The logo for good measure. There is a bit of moire' patterns in the above pixtures: the digital camera pixels were beating against the pxiels on the iPAQ's screen.
