I am an Apple Certified tech and I can't tell you how many of those I have replaced. It must be over 100. I can do it in my sleep now. There are 3 boards that fail in the wallstreet series. 1. Sound card 2. Charge Card 3. PMU Many times they will fail at the same time making troubleshooting them difficult. It's at a point now where fixing them isn't worth the cost of the laptop. Kyle H.
