If I can get this thing to work, then I think I'll get an Airport card for it. Being a well rounded person, I should probably know something about MAC's.

I do have a question, just in case there is some MAC people in the audience.

Anyone ever open one of these things? I don't know which model it is off the top of my head, it's a white one, with iBook and the apple logo on the back of the screen. It doesn't turn on, apparently no power. It came to me with a broken power adaptor, the plug was broken beyond repair. I got a new adaptor for it, still doesn't turn on. I have a feeling the small circuit board the adaptor plugs into is blown out.

I haven't done any probing around with the DVM yet to see what's where, but anyone know if that's a common part to blow out?
