All,

Several weeks ago you joined me in a search for the solution to problems my 9 
month old Mac Mini was having.
Last posting: Tue, 28 Sep 2010

The problem is now resolved thanks to MacWorx and Applecare warranty - and a 
new logic board for the Mac Mini.

The symptoms were:
Long time to boot up - several minutes
A mouse pointer 'artefact' left in the corner of the screen on start up.
Mouse and keyboard would only respond if started in safe boot mode.

Despite all the rebuilding, rebooting, reinstalling I did, nothing would work, 
so off to hospital it went. Out of sympathy, my wife went to hospital in 
Joondalup too for her own memory reinstalled, boot blocks restored and 
disinfected. I was a little confused at the time about who was where! I think 
in the end my wife was treated under applecare, and the Mini under Medicare ... 
  ummmm, no. wrong way around again.. dang. 

Both wife and mini are back at home, happily rebuilt to their former selves. 

I thought this feedback to the list might be useful for future solution 
finding, and a lesson in the benefits of Medicare,   ummm Applecare.
