iMac down

My year old iMac G5 is in the shop. This after AppleCare asked me to open her up and have a look myself. Ah, no! I've always thought it would be an interesting world if auto manufacturers treated customers on warranty the same way: "Sir, just be careful when you release that bracket the engine block is likely to shift heavily... A winch is useful..."

The problem (with my iMac) is beyond common, apparently. The techy guy guessed what it was as soon as he saw me carry in the box :) Something to do with capacitors. Anyway, the display is screwed leading to the computer refusing to boot up or boot up properly. How exciting.

MUST have the new iPod video. Must. Just gotta sell my current iPod. What a sweet bit of technology. Even hotter than the Nano which is saying a lot. Ahem, went shopping after dropping my iMac in the repair side of the store.

Anyway, without a home computer for a week now.

A rut's deeper right?
