A followup to the question I posed before (below): What do I tell the mac repair guy? The lockups happen now and again. It may run for hours and then lockup. Or it may only take a few key strokes.
Since I've had 3 batteries, a power manager, logic board, speakers, new case, and now this, should demand a new one? That's essentially what has happened so far. Short of replacing the screen, video card, and ram I've got a new Mac. I'll be honest, I love the little guy, but it has really hurt my opinion of mac and mac products. I know that may get me kicked off this, but it's true. Sorry, I'm frustrated.
