Umm it is actually easy to open a System Saver.  Just peel back part of the foam
around the bottom. There is a screw at each corner and a screw in between on the
left and right side.  The the whole thing comes apart.  The fan is one of those 
110V jobs.  THe fan at least in mine is a Comair Robotron Sprite Model su2c7.
It can be obtained from Digikey.  However, I don't seem to be able find my copy 
at the moment for the Digikey part number.
