Default Stupid Computer %^#&
My computer died on me last night. Just basically shut down and I can't get it to start up again. Jim suggested it could just be the power supply. That'* what I was thinking and hoping as well. I have a TON of stuff on that HD. I'll try to get it fixed ASAP.

I may be MIA for a while since I don't have full access to another computer. So in case anyone wonders..."Hey, where'* bonnie94sse, #6 post *****?" I'm alive and my car is fine....but my computer isn't.

C ya guys later!

Never tried on an IMac. Shouldn't be hard though.

Gotta be careful in the Mac territory. Those things are tricky SOBs.
