Each key has two leads that are soldered to the keyboard PCB. Desolder
the key then turn the keyboard over. Use a pair of needlenose pliers to
squeese together the white "clip" each side of the keyswitch and just
pull the keyswitch out.

What color are the letters on the keyboard and does it have a numeric 
keypad?
