The Dell latitude D620 was introduced in March 2006. Both the first MacBook Pro, and this Dell Latitude D620 have the same Intel core duo T2300E. Like the first MacBook, they both have Intel's GMA 950 graphics.

Edit Step 1 — Dell Latitude D620 Teardown ¶

Open the screen up all the way (180deg) so the LCD is laying flat on the work surface parallel to the keyboard
Use a flat head screwdriver to pry the D620 nameplate off from the right side edge.
Gently lift the nameplate off from right to left to expose the 3 keyboard retaining screws
Remove the 3 screws

Edit Step 2 ¶

Using your fingers, lift up the keyboard to a 30 degree angle.
Carefully pull the keyboard toward the LCD screen to release the tabs along the bottom edge of the keyboard.
Now you can gently flip the keyboard over so the keys are resting on the track pad and the keyboard connector is exposed. Be sure not to pull on the keyboard cable.

Edit Step 3 ¶

Insert a small flat head screw driver into the slot with a red rectangle around it to pry the blue latch up.
Then use the pull tab to pull the keyboard connector straight up from the logic board.

Edit Step 4 ¶

Disconnect the display connector by pulling straight up from the logic board

Edit Step 5 ¶

Using some tool. (In my case a plastic opening tool from iFixit) remove the antenna cables.

Edit Step 6 ¶

Push the meta clips away from the WLAn card.
The card pops up at a 45 degree angle
Pull the card straight out, away from the logic board.

Edit Step 7 ¶

Remove the antenna cable from the WWAN card.
Push the tabs.
The card will pop up to a 45 degree angle.
Remove the card by pulling strait away.
This only applies if you have a WWAN Card, as not all computers have a WWAN card.
