Yeah I'd problems with my wifi on a machine under a year old, it's now a glorified paperweight which I can't even get to go into safe mode or anything! It's as dead as a dead thing grr! :sneaky:

Welcome to the fold brother!! :D:thumbsup:

Count me in too, I implement changes and fixes into large estates of unix servers for a living and have been a tech for over 20 years. When I go home I want a system that just works and since getting my first Mac 3 years ago I've been very impressed and wouldn't swap it for a windows machine of any kind. Linux would be OK but its a too much like my day job ;)

Welcome aboard :thumbup:. I've run Hackintosh's and full Macs so if you have any questions you can't find answers to, give me a shout.
