Hi there. I am a total Mac newbie (but a PC user of many years). I just got a pair of iMacs off ebay (#8731245361).
I have bought them for my boyfriend for Christmas as he sold his Mac last year and misses it dreadfully.
Anyway I picked them up last night. The man switched on the one with the scratched screen and it worked ok (he pressed switch on keyboard and/or main unit). Then he tried the other one and nothing. He switched power sockets, power leads and moved it into another room. Still nothing. So I renegotiated the deal and left with one dead iMac and one scratched one. The keyboard and mouse were not included in the sale but he said I could use any PC keyboard or mouse with a USB connection.
Please help.
PS Great site
