Takeapart time! Primary goals: pull the drive to image it, and touch up the power jack.
Here's the bottom: two Phillips screws and four typical apple hex screws.
And the open-up: fortunately no interlocking plastic tabs, so it just lifted open. As expected, some delightfully well thought out jankiness.

With the paper insulator removed there are only a few visible apple items: the HD sled, display cable, and inverter board. The board on the left does a lot of work (ADB related inputs, floppy port, touchscreen magic) and the one on the right (above the CD ROM) is the main touchscreen controller.

@likesoldmacs@bitbang.social I did not expect to see a through hole mounted board in there!?
