[QUOTE="MBasile, post: 304344, member: 23801"] well I got the computer back from repairs...we'll see how well its fixed. Silly me, when they guy asked if I wanted the $85 data backup I asked if he though I needed it and he said "Well it sounds like its definitely a hardware problem, so you'd only loose the information on the HDD if there was some kind of accident" so of course I opted to keep $85 in my pocket. Guess how the apple tech decided to fix the problem? Replacing the hard drive, that'll do it! Then to top it off, they decided to use as many parts from the old HDD to put together the new one, so none of the info was salvageable :o [/QUOTE]
