Someone gave me an old flavored iMac; the hard drive blew. I replaced the hard drive, but now the machine either dies shortly after startup and/or the monitor is dead. Everything I've read says it sounds like the fly back transformer burning out because the iMacs have a very bad or nonexistent cooling system (passive??) Okay, fine. It's going to turn into a very attractive blue and white boat anchor. What I'd like to know is it the eMacs share the same problem. They are starting to look really good right now.
