My friend has an iBook SE. At least, I believe it's an SE because the family number is 
M2453.

Problem is it's totally frozen. The screen is dark and there is no sound.  The CD-ROM 
drive (which has a disk in it) does not open.

But the following are what makes it strange, at least to me:

1) The green light below the screen is on.

2) The green light between the F4 and F5 keys is on.

3) The Caps Lock key light is on.

4) No key combination that I've thought of trying (including command-control-power and 
shift-fn-control-power) does anything to it. The lights that are on stay on and 
nothing else happens.

5) The lights go off when I remove the battery, but after leaving the battery out for 
15 minutes and putting it back in, the situation is as it was before removing the 
battery.

My friend knows nothing about computers except to use them, and never upgraded the 
machine, so it's as it was when he bought it new, including whatever OS came with it. 
(9.0.x?)

Any suggestions?
