I have a 20" iMac G5 (with Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse) that was delivered in the middle of December. So far no fires ! ...but am experiencing similar issues with the startups. So far, I only have to start up twice in order to get the mouse and keyboard to work. Putting in new batteries regularly helps (wish someone had warned me before I made this decision. I'll go broke buying batteries). I did switch to the "Macally" mouse. Like the feel better than the Apple mouse (has been true since I started using Apple computers back in 1980... NO mice then). Also has the right click and center scroll. Pete On 3/14/05 10:04 AM, "Pat" <patdart at cox.net> wrote: > And frightenly, I bought mine late in Dec., but so far, so good.
