[Cube] G4 Cube Power Issues

[George Pepper]

Meh.  I have an HDMI Mini and my old G4 450 Cube still works fine in  
the guest room.  Minis are better than Cubes, but not as cool.  lol.

I'm guessing the card that drives the I/O for your HD is bad (I can't  
even remember what it's called).  The donor Cube idea is a good one.   
I've collected no less than three Cubes over the years, and so I have  
spares of everything (All three work too).  If you'd like one, I can  
sell it to you for a pittance plus shipping.

Cheers,

George A. Pepper - BM, MM
