Shay,

I daresay that will not come cheap. My (now declared dead) Pismo was diagnosed 
with 
a faulty processor card and logic board - replacement parts were quoted at more 
than $2.000.

Apparently since the machine is no longer being manufactured, the parts are 
drastically marked up by Apple.

Sorry for the bad news.
