to make a long story short, i'm going to try to replace the internal slot-loading drive in an imac 350 (the drive is currently dead). i ordered an apple genuine dvd/cd-rom drive from OWC, who told me that replacing it myself should be simple enough. i agree, but because i've never done it before, i want to know exactly what i need to do so i'm looking for instructions or a tutorial online that will help guide me.

problem is, i can't find one.

can anyone point out a good tutorial specific to the imac 350 (or comparable DV model)? normally, i'd have time to look around myself but i'm swamped at work. thanks.
