Marc-

Of course, there is no way of knowing if you Mac is suffering from the
same problem that afflicted mine, but the symptoms are the same. What
went out was the flyback transformer. I once saw a photo of a guy standing
next to a huge pile of them, all of which he had removed from sick Macs
at his company. You can get them electronics suppliers; MCM Electronics
is one company that carries them. If I had my catalog, I could tell you
the price (and make sure I have the name right) but it is just a few
bucks. Heck, just touching up the solder joints fixed the thing so it
worked for a while.

Good luck in getting your Mac up and running!
