After even safe mode login, I get the Blue screen. I held the ⌘ and S key, then at command line, /sbin/fsck -fy and the result gave no apparent errors. But still Blue screen...

I do not have any recovery disks. Is it worth it to pursue these ? Where ? (see my specs below).

Aside from the command referenced above, are there any other diagnostics to run from the command line that would difinitively identify the issue ?

It's possible that your HD has died. You best bet would probably be to pick up some install disks so that you can run the Apple Hardware Test to confirm.
