This post is proof the miracles do happen.

This Mac computer I'm using was diagnosed as being "toast" by a genius at the genius bar in an Apple store six months ago.   It would refuse to boot up.  Saturday I placed it in my car to deliver it to a Mac specialist to see how much it would cost to be fixed. Well, the guy wasn't in and the other place was closed. So then on a lark I decided to turn this on and it booted up. Amazing, it was brought to life from the trash heap. I was going to put in a system install disc but as long as this is working there is no need. Praise God.
