Opening the Matias Laptop Pro Keyboard
« on: Sun, 30 October 2016, 16:57:51 »
Greetings.  Has anyone here opened up the case for the Matias Laptop Pro Keyboard?  (The one I have is the Mac-specific version, if that makes a difference.)  There are two obvious screws on the bottom, by the case won't open by removing those screws alone, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something obvious (or not-so-obvious).  Maybe it's held together by clips on the interior?  Do I need to use a case cracker tool on this thing?

Thanks, any pointers or information would be appreciated.
