Well, that's actually all you need.  I had to install memory in 14 Mac
SEs and did great using the torx wrench and their manual, plus one of
the Apple technotes on memory banks.  Basically, I used the torx wrench
to pull (unscrew) the four screws from the back of the SE.  Then I used
the side (lenghtwise) of thre torx to pry away the shell.  Worked great!
100% effective.  And, to Technology Works credit, I wanted to be double
sure that my procedure was ok and the tech guy totally helped me out and
walked me straight through an installation.  I did the other 13 in less
than 1/2 hour!
