First I installed the newest update for the OS X software on the G5. A few minutes later I realized that I had a hard drive not showing up. The G5 has two 250 GB hard drives and both drives show up on the desktop, but after the install and restart the other drive was missing. This is curious indeed. So I mess around for awhile, trying to figure it out.
Secondly I lean back and my chair hits the Powerbook G4 that was setting next to the G5 and I knock it off the desk, causing some fairly severe damage. It’s dented and smashed and all that jazz.
Thirdly, I attempt to fix the G5 by doing what I have done several times with PCs. Apparently you can’t do that. I go in and unplug the hard drives and let them set for a few minutes and then plugged them back in. When I turned the computer back on it will no longer start up, all I get is a gray screen with a flashing world symbol, and after about 5 minutes the fans start speeding up, faster, faster, faster, and faster until I freak out and turn it off. What have a done? What have I done!!!
