We shipped Tom's G4 off for motherboard replacement--our dime, since we bought this one off my brother and no applecare by now. It came back, but they forgot to replace the other things mentioned (loose power port, damaged CD player). So the box came back ship it off to fix those.
I haven't shipped it yet because I'm sick and need distraction.
Well, the screen's flickering again. So now I'm using it until it dies again. If the motherboard's being bitchy, best it happen while their parts/labor are guaranteed, no?
I hope future generations of apple laptops don't have these crazy logic board issues. I had a G3 that had several covered repairs under their extended warranty, they eventually replaced it with a G4, in fact. Sadly, that G4's hinge was no match for a toddler's penchant for pulling. *sigh* It's a very nice little storage drive now. The screen is now non-functional.
And I can't get my stuff off that hard drive until this machine is actually fixed. Gah.
