    • Pull the keyboard ribbon straight up from the logic board. Place the keyboard aside.

    • The connector may be tight. Gently rock the connector from side to side while pulling directly upward to free it. You can use this technique on many of the cards and cables you'll be disconnecting.

    • Make sure you have removed the laptop battery and CD/DVD modules from the expansion bays before proceeding.

  12. PowerBook G3 Pismo RAM Replacement, Processor: Schritt 12, Bild 1 von 1
    • Grasp the plastic tab on the processor's right side and pull it directly up.

    • Some processors may be missing the plastic pull tab. In this case, we suggest using a non-metal tool to gently pry up the processor. Slip the tool's thin edge under the front right corner of the processor and carefully pry it up.

    • Release the tabs on each side of the RAM chip at the same time. These tabs lock the chip in place and releasing them will cause the chip to "pop" up.

    • Pull the RAM chip out.

    • There are RAM slots on both sides of the processor. We recommend installing higher capacity chips on the bottom so that if you want to upgrade later, you won't have to remove the processor.

Way too many steps in my opinion. First, the battery should be removed. I saw no reason to remove keyboard, folding it over was enough. Also, saw no reason to remove PRAM battery, I did disconnect it, however. The AirPort card didn’t have to be removed, either. Once the shield was removed along with the heatsink, the processor board just popped right out. When replacing board, make sure the little tabs are in their slots since the board won’t push back in all of the way. Thanks iRobot!
