Exactly like the graphite one's that have been recalled....but check one thing out first that may effect your airport. If this is installed in a CRT iMac please make sure your antenna wire is plugged in the card. I fell in this trap at first... if that does not fix it, go to http://www.vonwentzel.net/ABS/Repair/index.html they will have all the symptoms and serial numbers on it. Mine was in that range of serial numbers. I then gave them the internal apple care document and once they look it up the tech changed his tune... he did not even want a credit card to diagnose the problem. Stand your ground and stand firm if you have to call them on this. He was very helpful once the problem was determined to be a recall issue and even arranged my exchange through the wonderful folk at Mactown which in turn saves me the hassle of shipping the old one back. I wish you good luck... let me know what happens. Allen | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be February 25. The LCS Web page is <http://www.kymac.org>.
