I'd agree there. That case is a particularly fine piece of design for 
it's day. The 700 has better expandablity and despite the slower CPU 
it's possibly not that much slower in real terms due to the better 
architecture.

You flick on the switch in the rear of the unit near the power plug and mash
down on the power button on the keyboard and you get nothing?

Flicking on the switch will make the built-in monitor crackle softly.
If you don't get that then there can be a power supply issue or a fuse on
the motherboard is blown.

As an opinion, all-in-ones are kinda stodgy. They work just fine, and that
580 can be speed bumped if you want to spend the money on it.

My vote's for the Quadra 700. A favorite of mine.

I would first suspect a dead PRAM battery.

I have a Macintosh LC 580 but it won't turn on. It has a 810 MB HD. How does
this compare to a Quadra 700. Is it worth trying to FIX. Is there a Fuse in
side. I see that the Monitor section has screws. Can that section be slid out to
access the Power Supply???
