Recent TIL articles: AirPort 1.3 and Service Name for PPPoE; iMac "take apart" articles

CNET staff
AirPort 1.3: Service Name Field Provided for PPPoE Internet Access TIL article #106157 notes: "Some Internet service providers that use PPPoE require you to enter a name in the "Service name" field to make a connection." With AirPort 1.3, you can now do this.

iMac: "take apart" articles TIL article #95120 lists all the iMac Service Source take apart procedures in the Knowledge Base. For example, as we recently noted, removing a hard drive from an iMac is a much more involved procedure than removing one from a Power Mac G4. But if you really want to try, this TIL article includes a link to iMac: Removing the Hard Drive. It also casually notes that these procedures "expose you to high voltages that can result in death or serious injury." [Update: Apple briefly removed #95120 earlier today, but it is back again - at least for the moment!]
