Re: Icebook--was Hey Kyle...

Sounds like the power inverter (I think that's what Apple replaced) as 
opposed to the backlight. At least that's what it was on my son's 500 
that showed similar symptoms.

I have an IceBook 500 that  probably needs to be repaired at a cost

repair or simply sell for scrap and purchase a new IceBook?

A:   Gee, I have a powerbook 180, wallstreet, lombard, and 550 
ti-book.    They are all turned on right now.    Although refurb'ed 
ibook's are going really cheap at the Apple store right now, they 
aren't going for $300.
It would be easier to answer if you told us what was wrong so we 
could all give you advice on how to fix it.   I just resoldered my/my 
daughter's charge plug for free---if you view my time as having no value.
