Well, it happened: I installed the 10.2.8 Combined update, and while installing the security updates, I heard a little noise from the speaker, and out went the monitor. No keypress or mouse movement will turn it back on. It was optimizing when the screen went blank, so I have absolutely no idea what to do. Any ideas? I'd probably just do the modified three-finger salute on it, except for this whole optimization thing. I've been hitting Enter every once in awhile, in the hopes that the Restart button has come up, and that the press of Enter would activate it, but no luck so far. Help! -Adam Worried
