Opening the G1 case

I'm trying to open my G1, but it won't. I unscrewed all the screws except the 6 screws that seem to keep the keyboard. Any trick ?

Four at the back, two at the sides and one at the bottom (the big one there) .. I think ...

Yeah that's what I would think as well. Maybe it needs some force or bending or whatever....
Thanks for the answer !

Oh .. and, the ones at the side ... not the two with the washers ... those act as hinges .. and then it should rotate open around them.

btw .. all Nords seem to have the same principle for opening them up.

Super nice photos, thanks. Although it just confirms I was doing ok. I'll figure it out !
