A friend of mine had a roof leak which resulted in water penetrating his Mac 6200. He checked the motherboard and found that there was green and white oxidation near the back of the m/board (not near the Motorola CPU) and that it was effectively knackered. The local Apple dealer has quoted him over 300 pounds plus VAT to change and fit the m/board. Any one know a cheaper option? Your help and/or advise would be greatly appreciated. Simon
