I bought a new battery for my 2400c on Wednesday night, and a few minutes after that, the 2400c stopped cold. Nothing but the slightest click when hitting the reset button. The nice folks at MacService in San Jose, Calif., said it needs a new processor, and with parts and service, it'll be $270. Maybe it would've been more practical to buy a new box, but I have always been determined to be buried with that 2400c. -- Frisco Del Rosario
