most functionality is tied to the motherboard, (aka logic board,
cpu etc). usually, a diagnostic tool is run for verification. it's
possible that one particular functionality could fail without
affecting something else. in the case of your friend, it's probable
that it would be more cost effective to replace rather than repair
the unit. if one was a tinker(er) a replacement part might be
found somewhere to swap in, but the time (cost) involved would be
prohibitive. best...jf

Jerry, I did check that which told me that the Mac calls it Logic
board, but it does not tell me what goes out if the motherboard
fails. I mean, if it goes bang, then it seems to me the total
system should not work, or? The other extras might well be done
in, without the motherboard having gone out, too. I can't
understand why somebody for instance would tell me my motherboard
had gone out if only one of my software programs had died.
