I have an eMac (only 2 years old) it's an 800MHz PowerPC G4. I love the computer but it is "zapping".
It only happens every so often. I took it to someone a few months ago to have dust blown out of it (I was chicken to do it myself). There was a lot of dust in it. The zapping stopped but it is back again.
It hasn't zapped in the last couple of days til tonight.
I called the repair shop and they thought it might be the CRT going out. They said that they see quite a few of CRT's go out on these.
My last mac was an old iMac and the same thing happened. But I didn't take it in on time and it blew up.
I bought a laptop for a backup and hopefully will be here soon! Then this eMac is going into the repair shop and see what the problem is and hopefully it can be resolved.
Just wondering if any of you heard of this zapping thing??
