Hi
I wonder if anyone else has come across this number,occasionally when I
power up my iMac it runs (OSX vers 10.2) the clock sets itself to an
arbitary time but the date always reverts to 1st January 1970!I can easily
switch to the current date and time but wondered if this has happened to any
readers? Something of a puzzle be interested to know why but before anyone
asks, the machine has a new pram battery

I'm not certain, but I'm pretty sure that there is another battery other than the PRAM. I had a similar exp. with my iMac DV a year or so ago, and that was the problem. Be forewarned, though, that this is NOT covered by warranty. I had to pay to get mine replaced despite the computer still being covered by the extended warranty.
