Why pay anything when you can have it from ET for free, as Franc suggested ?
As to getting them apart, many of these monitors had two concealed clips at
the top. You have to know exactly where to insert a pry-tool into the gap
between the CRT bezel, and the main case. Once you are in at the right
place, the clip is levered down, which releases it from a corresponding
latch moulded in the back cover. Pulling back at the same time releases the
section that you are prying. You then repeat at the other spot 8 or 9 inches
away. When that has been released, the top of the cabinet will come away
from the bezel. Unfortunately, that's often not the end of it though. With
some varieties, you then need to put some thick foam or whatever onto the
bench, lay the monitor on its face, then put your arms around it, lift it
up, and shake until the rest of it comes away. Brutal sounding, I know, but
that's the way it's done ...


Yes, the way it's done. It's the same thing I had to do to get my
4-year old away from his cookies.


The prying or the shaking?
