  • My Mom's RevA just went down with the same symptoms. She was unable to recover and now has an iMac G4 ;-) Does yours have a VGA out in the back? That way you could connect a monitor to know if the rest of the system is okay. If the problem i…

  • I use both the 1470(USB) and the 1470N in a school network. The 1470N has been a champ. We'll keep buying them. I'm not as excited about the USB implementation on the 1470. Love the tiny form factor.
