If the iMacs have been dry, and it's just an issue of grass and weeds growing into the car, some more cans of compressed air may well be all they need. If the iMac's been off for more than a day or three, there's no residual charge in the CRT electronics, and taking them apart would be the first step towards cleaning them. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
