He must have meant to say least easiest to work on but messed up on his line. :lol: :-D
I mean even the compacts are easier once you get it open, which is only a matter of the proper tools. Considering only Macs produced to date, there's plenty of easier ones. The the cover on the LC style cases pop right off and everything's there. Almost everything clips into place. Back in school when I'd help out with the computers those were the easiest to replace a floppy drive that had something like a pencil jammed into it. Pop it out, quick work with a screw driver on the bracket, and plug and pop it back in. Took longer to walk to and from the location of the computer in most cases.
The 610/6100s weren't that bad, despite having the same crappy plastic. At least back then they weren't usually as brittle as they are now. I could think of more examples, but I'm preaching to the choir.
That said, I agree I like the Quadra 8XXs. I'd love to have an 800 or 840av. I do have a Quadra 660av (with 14" AV monitor) and 950 along with more Macs than I know what to do with...so I guess I don't need one THAT much... Still, the collector in me wants one.
