Mac, Crackle & Pop

Been having problems here with one of our Macs which has decided not to start up after Xmas for some reason. I use it to print out to certain printers which aren't currently running under Leopard (for some stupid reason...it's the first time I've been severely disappointed with OS X).

So, I remembered that I'd taken an old iMac home a while back that had OS X on it so thought I'd bring it in. I went down to the shed this morning and brought it back up to the house. Plugged it in, turned it on and then proceeded to watch the fireworks start up under the blue translucent cover

There's were flashes of light, sparks and crackles going on all over the place. Thought the whole thing was going to go up in flames so carefully approached it and pulled the power cable out.

Think it's dead but I might try it out again tonight, hehe
