[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1794792, member: 175845"] Thanks Jake, I took it that the OS got a "clean install" considering that the Mac had been "wiped". Maybe my terminology is on a different page. :Smirk: But the "[I]software was added back gradually[/I]" part I gather is where the problem started again but that's just my assumption for how I read the situation. I'm just wondering if the problem existed before any such third-party software install or just after the "wipe" and OS install??? If they checked as I have suggested. Or what the Apple Store genius could/should have done to test by using a pristine OS X boot drive, and then check the Mac for the problems. :Oops: - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
