[QUOTE="DianeDennis, post: 1527357, member: 151769"] Hi All! I have a MacBook that has a cracked screen. That's all that's wrong with it (son with anger issues squeezed the display until it cracked) but I want to sell it off, most likely cheap for parts or whatever someone wants it for. I need to erase it but I can see absolutely nothing on the screen. I don't have Firewire capability (or whatever that is when you use that particular cord to "connect" computers). Is there any other way I can erase the hard drive just using the computer itself? Short of beating it with a hammer (which would obviously negate the possibility of selling it). ;) Thank you so much!
