The nice thing about the screwless cases was that they could easily be 
opened without "voiding the warranty". The warranty sticker was placed 
over the middle hole but one didn't have to break it in order to open 
the case. It was enough to bend the case a little by pushing down near 
the space bar and pulling simultaneously up by the edge. The remaining 
two could be opened normally as long as one kept the middle part from 
latching back in.
