Hi everyone. 
This is probably a pretty simple fix..  it's likely in the power circuitry--  
hitting the power button causes it to just hang a moment, then the power status 
indicator LED flashes, no POST activity gets commenced (nothing from the 
monitor or CD which I've been booting from.)  So I'm wondering if someone is 
adept at this and could make quick work of it..  maybe a barter for sizeable 
quantities of superb Grateful Dead recordings?  (I'm rather indigent-- found 
this Toshiba in a dumpster, fastest machine (2.2Ghz!) I've ever owned, just 
deleted the virus-seized Winbloze installation (complete with maybe $1k worth 
of iTunes downloads-- man are there some spoiled rich kids in this town..) and 
voila, a fast and trusty machine..  well, light and fast at least, but not 
terribly sturdy.. the fall wasnt from too huge a height.
Another consideration is something I found via about.com:

anyone have any experience with this, i.e. what kind of turn around time I 
could hope for?
Happy new decade,
 Mark
