I am interested in an HP slimline because of the size of it. Eventually, I would like to upgrade the system and add more memory and maybe something else. How hard would it be to piece the system back together, and is there a manual on how to take it apart to get to a certain piece?

To really answer your question with helpful advice and not just a bunch of information totally unrelated....
The slimline is a slim case, so if you plan on doing any upgrades yourself, you may want to go with a larger case. The slimline case requires smaller parts. You won't be able to just go out and get any part on the market. You wil need parts which will fit, of course. Also, If you're strapped for desk space and are not planning on any self upgrades, the slimline is a good unit for those needs.
Most any HP is a good unit for working on as they are pretty standard in equipment when it comes to taking them apart.
