        I’m sort of alarmed how accurate it is.

        I even played with Arch, Debian and went through college with a MacBook pro.

            Yes, a g4 or g5 i think, had to fix 5 Capacitors, did a good job at 4, the 5th i had to extend with some wire, not ideal. It boots but USB is not recognized / i asume it does not get enough power. I have a Note on my Phone homescreen to “fix the imac (again)” since June
