Yes, everything needs to be torn down, and that also includes Logitech’s latest Revue. So, as usual, we have the iFixit crew ripping them apart with their knives. What they find out is not a big surprise. The Revue is essentially a dated netbook with an aesthetic plastic casing. A 1.2GHz Atom CPU is what you get in the Revue. Thought that’s somewhat better than Apple’s 1GHz A4 processor in their Apple TV, but Logitech’s version seemed to have more cookies to bite off.

There’s also 1GB of DDR3 memory as well as a grand total of 5GB NAND Flash (split between a Samsung and Hynix chip). Essentially, the hardware here is on par with netbooks from fall 2008 (the Dell Mini 9 is accurately mentioned), with “tons of open space” allowing the box to stay cool under pressure. The gang stated that it’s essentially super easy to open it, and all you need is a standard Philips screw. The fan used is also easily replaceable, if it ever breaks down. But other than that, there’s nothing much you can replace. Yes, if anything else get fried, you’re better off buying a new unit.
