The new iMac features an edge-to-edge glass. This is different from the 4 mm aluminum bezel that surrounded the glass on the previous iMac.

Two suction cups, two steady hands, and the enormous glass panel lifts up.

Hopefully you're not following along at home, as this can be a little tricky. If you do have an older iMac that needs surgery, we now have detailed repair guides for many iMac models.
