Another Trip to Apple Store Genius Bar
I am writing this from Genius Bar at the Apple Store.
This time it’s a 20-inch iMac G5 that is part of the “iMac G5 Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues“.
The iMac has been working great until earlier today.
Gonna pick it up soon, I guess.
As a matter of fact, I have another 20-inch iMac G5 that is having somewhat similar problem, but not quite the same.
We’ll see!
