Of course, that would do it. My point was more self-referential than 
it appeared. That being that when similar 'black screen' occurred 
over here, the first items that entered my mind were: 1) TimeWarner 
has cut me off, 2) The mac has died, 3)  It's a Bell Tel DDoS attack, 
4) Outlook launched itself in VPC in the background and s**t has hit 
fan, etc.

In other words: EVERYTHING except Power Interrupt.
