iMac G5 extended repair program

Post 1

Rod Hagen

Apple have announced an extended repair program for the Ófirst generationÓ iMac G5. (The current model of the iMac G5 , released in May this year, is not affected by this problem)

The issue involves bulging, sometimes bursting, capacitors and can result in a wide variety of power and video issue, and other problems as well if the capacitors leak and damage the midplane assembly of these computers. It is caused by faulty capacitors sold to many computer manfacturers in recent years.

see http://www.apple.com/support/imac/repairextensionprogram/ for details.

Cheers
