Hello there, I've a good friend who has owned a 23 in iMac (G5) since new. Recently, he went to turned it on and it gave a bit of a splat and just did nothing. Not being a tecchie, he went to the local Apple shop. They told him that parts for a 9 year old Mac are not available ... and one thing led to another and they sold him a new iMac! Now I think it's NOT the switch ... but more likely the power supply that has 'karked it'. Are there any sources for exchange/repaired power boards ... or do we have to look at component level repair? Is it a recognised problem now that these machines have gone out of their guarantee period?
We are at Batemans Bay ... about 300 Km south of Sydney, Australia.
