Hi.

I acquired my daughters Nick Mini10v the other day and bought the RAM upgrade. I may be getting into that today.

I also am going to paint it since I'll have it down. I am not concerned with the painting part of it.

What I would like to know is how might I get the top cover/Dell logo'd green and white slimed print off of the back of the display? I call myself looking hi and low for the answer but I must not know exactly what the piece is called.

Does it just pop off? I pried just a little and stopped in case there was another trick.

Should I just tape it off?

Once again, hello and thanks for the great info I know I can get here.

tape might look kinda cheesy, wont the paint cover it?

What I mean is if I should use tape to tape off the areas on the netbook that I do not want painted so I can paint the lid. Or can the lid be removed off the back of the display?

yes you can remove the display, here is the complete Service Manual for the Dell 1011

just click on display and go from there

I did find a similar article and after taking it down as far as I could, I had to tape off a lot anyway. It is drying now. Hopefully, I'll be getting it back together in a few hours.

I'll try to post a picture this week.
