I finally got the back off using 3 screwdrivers and my fist. There were 2 plastic clips on each side. One clip got broken and there is minimal damage to the back. Why can't they just put 4 screws like everybody else?

Does anyone have experience removing the back cover of this 2002 model Hewlitt Packard computer monitor? I have removed hundreds and can't get the back off this one.
