Umm, you might want to reset your system clock. According to the date on
this email, it's December 31, 1969 where you are.

The battery isn't necessarily bad, Katherine pressed the reset button.
It is important not to run your System with the wrong date, especially in OS X. Creation dates help the System to identify different files & drives. You really need to run a utility to correct these errors ASAP.
Lets not forget if this iMac happens to have 10.2.4 on it still, there was a bug that reset the system clocks to the equivalent of 2:00PM, December 31, 1969 in Cupertino, depending on what time zone you were in. If you were on broadband with automatic time setting you never noticed, but if you were using manual time set you did. Every time you booted up it was 1969 all over again. 10.2.6 fixed this. I know it affected the MDD Power Macs and G4 PowerBooks. Don't know if it affected the iMac's?
