Greetings, Good news: I just acquired a 'newer' Mini. Especially good because:
Bad news: My G5 2.0 17" iMac just showed me the black screen of death. I attempted all of the resetting measures that I could find online, but none worked. I did not try to reflow the GPU. The third LED doesn't light up, so I'm guessing a failed logic board. All of the caps look to be in good shape; flat-topped and non-bulgy. The fans start up and the lights come on, so the psu still works to some degree, if not perfectly. I have no way to test it. The case is in pretty good shape, and the screen had no bad spots - of course, now, it has no spots at all :-( There is not a dim light from the screen, so, from what I can tell on the net, it shouldn't be a screen problem. So, all parts other than the hard drive are available. I want her to be a good organ donor, so I'm willing to part with parts for much-better deals than you would find on ebay. Rather than list every single part, it may be easier to respond to individual requests. To post this, I think I have to list a price, so I'll arbitrarily (I really don't know what to put for a price) throw up a price of $50 + shipping for the entire machine. As I said, though, individual parts are fine, too, if not preferable. Thanks very much, and feel free to ask questions if I didn't explain things very well, Jason Kyle Butler, PA 16001 -- You received this message because you are a member of the LEM Swap group.
