   Damn, that's almost unbelievable that they'd do that on such a 
high-production-volume machine.  How incredibly frustrating.

   I was able to get the rear of the top cover off of the pins, but I 
can't seem to get past the locked part.  It's in "secure".  What's the 
trick?  I really don't want to damage this machine; it is otherwise like 
new.
