Srieck,
I've been recapping logic boards on SE/30s for a couple of years now. There are times where I have operated my SE/30 without the case plastics on and disassembled the machine shortly after power down. I think the chances are pretty slim for getting shocked by these compact Macs. The later models have been given enough amble protection against high voltage contact compared to earlier ones. Now I think the risk goes up only at times when you do have to troubleshoot or adjust things on the analog board or crt and yoke assembly. For these, just make sure you don't use both of your hands; the chances of having high voltage go from one arm, across your chest and exiting your other arm will be lessened. Just place one hand in your pants pocket or hold it behind your back as you make adjustments or take multimeter readings.
