Mac laptops vary with generation. Current (back to 2006) is phillips
to get in, T6 to remove mounting hardware or unmount drive.

Big difference between PowerBook, iBook, and MacBook. Some iBook
models have a very difficult connector to the MB that can break the MB
if removed carelessly. PBs and MBs I have worked on are really
extremely easy to work on (at least for RAM and HD.
