However the value of data suggests to me that an external Firewire
drive to

are
very good safety nets. in my humble opinion ;-)
i've got a LaCie d2 Hard Drive Extreme which a good work tool - its
very fast on firewire 800 on my alpb1Ghz15" - diskwarrior's next on my
list (considering i've now got two macs in the cue to fix!)
BTW - if Classic Boots OK then the physical HD is likely not the
culprit.
I'll back up and try a restore. the fault was initially caused by mail
bombing out for some reason. i've noticed that osx is dead solid unless
something random kills it.
