[Ti] Dead Ti500

[Dick Grable]

The very first sign of trouble is one of the USB ports not working 
properly. Apple replaced the motherboard (4 times now) in a five month 
period. What's causing this is a complete mystery to me and the Apple 
techs. All external USB and F/W devices are either self powered or 
plugged into a powered hub except for the mouse.
