However (see my last post, sent about 15 minutes ago), upon reboot tonight, the screen is perfectly fine! Hmph! I sent Tom Lee a speculation about stored heat (what with no opportunity for the screen to sleep during init/install) that finally registered upon reboot. Shutting down cooled it off (note: this is a speculation only!). The caveat to our mutual suspicion would be that to install, I booted UP with a Sys 7.6 CD - would or wouldn't that count? Still curious and perplexed myself, all. Best regards, Dana -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
