I'm in Melbourne, if he's prepared to pay my $75/hr rate I'm quite happy to do the 6 hr trip up to Canberra... :) Wait, I forgot, I should be doing this for free... I really think that getting in contact with the local user group is the way to go, there he would be able to find someone to fix his problem, the address is which is listed at Apple Australia <http://www.apple.com.au/usergroups/listing.html> is <http://www.actaug.org.au/> their email contact is <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Beware though, members of users groups are volunteers, demanding help from them will get you nowhere. I think this topic has run it's course...
