I was happily playing with my beige G3 300 a few months ago and decided to try booting it from my external firewire HD. It didn't boot, it died. I sent it off for diagnosis and repair. Verdict: fried motherboard. Forked out for a new one - worked fine until... I tried the same trick again, with the same result, ie dead computer: no chimes no hd activity, nothing.
Apart from the obvious comments on my lackof sanity, anyone know what's happened?
