Whoa! I had a funny colored screen CC just a bit ago. It was perfect at the time I 
removed a perfectly good but tiny OEM 80 MB Quantum drive and replaced it with another 
really sleek black and shiny looking 500 MB drive. Phongged back into action, an 
otherwise normal screen had a slight but notable purplish tint over the lower part. 
After lots of looking, I replaced that sleek drive with a Quantum 500 MB drive that 
looked just like the 80 MB drive I had removed earlier. No more purple. It seems some 
drives are more magnetic than others. The size of drives we like to put into a CC 
often work fine in a modular Mac where the monitor is separated from where the drive 
lives. In a CC or other compact where things are cozy, some of these perfectly good 
drives drive you to distraction. Try changing your drive.
