Hi Ron,
This is very unusual for Macs, its a series of computers which were manufactured in a small time frame, and the logic boards and power supplies failed. I thought that when they were replaced, that they got 'new' parts from a different source, but I dont think they are available. So they have to use the stockpile of defective replacement parts, they last about 6 months.
Luckily Apple has a sort of 'recall' on these particular serial number machines, and all the work is done free, parts too.
Just hoping they give me a replacement, as they have done for some of my Mac classmates.
But I will get some pictures up today I hope. Im using this old Mac, but just put Photoshop on my husband's newer Mac, so will use his to get started.
Jane
