[QUOTE="Crumbly, post: 1893662, member: 409148"] Sorry, but I don't get the last line 'With the original disk they can re-install the OS and off you go.' Does that mean a second user would be able to restore my old work files even if I'd erased the hard drive prior to a clean system install? I don't think the HD is anywhere near busted - The hours of use are no more than 3,000 since new and I've never needed to call a tech helpline, let alone have an engineer call. It's been no trouble at all; in contrast with a friend's G4 that needed two replacement hard drives in its first year. Would it still be saleable with no HD in? Thanks for the software warning!
