Getting a new one isnt the problem. Just that I wish I was done working right now after 3 12 hour days in a row.

YES! VICTORY!
After hooking up the imac to the g5 tower w/ a firewire, I'm able to do a repair disc. After several times, the repair disc in the disc utility is actually doing something different.
We've got a progress bar -- over.
Might be fixing it -- Rodger that.

"Repair attempt on 1 volume"
HSF volume repaired"The volume Macintouch HD appears to be OK"
Need to verify disc permissions but the button arent clickable. ARG.

I like how the language says "appears to be OK"
Appears? It can't say "Yup, it's fixed."
"Appears" is such a nebulous word.

I remember once when my PC had lots of smoke coming out of it. The alarm in my house went off and everything.

Broadcasting live from my VIAO laptop. We still have a beachball on my OS when restarting. It seems to be not cooperating. We're waiting for word from the Governor about a pardon. But, if word does not come soon, we'll have to go ahead and fry the motherfucker.
Smoke a big one mac lovers :)-

The Mac is dead -- over.
REPEAT, the - Mac - is - dead.

Backing up files through firewire. *phew*... I'm only 33 hours away from getting my life back (wtf).

how in the hell... it didn't literally blow up right? just crashed really bad right?

I straight up got the sad mac face.
Aw... sad sad mac.
It was very sudden. No signs of distress all day. I believe my Mac is psychotic. Possible schizophrenia. The disruptive "I'm going to fuck up your day" personality came in and took over.

My friend had one of the new imacs for a month and it fried as he never turned it off. I walked in, and something smelled weird. He took it to the apple store and they fixed it. He said they just had to replace some part, but I don't remember exactly what it was.
