      I’m sort of alarmed how accurate it is.

      I even played with Arch, Debian and went through college with a MacBook pro.

        Was the iMac a casualty of the “capacitor plague” that happened a few years ago? I revived an old monitor pretty easily from a blown cap

          Yes, a g4 or g5 i think, had to fix 5 Capacitors, did a good job at 4, the 5th i had to extend with some wire, not ideal. It boots but USB is not recognized / i asume it does not get enough power. I have a Note on my Phone homescreen to “fix the imac (again)” since June
