For console, you can use the console to remove the instances - in the 
topology view, right-click on the server instance, and select Remove.

For replication, you'll have to remove all of the replication agreements 
on other servers that point to the server you removed, then you'll have 
to run the CLEANALLRUV task to clean up any remaining meta-data.
