[sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] SUDO: macbook experts?

[Julio Rios]

I was going to recommend InHomeMac, which was a repair shop on Mandela and

exist.... but they may have just moved or renamed.  Anyway, going to a shop
is a good source of last resort.  Hope it doesn't get to that if it's just
the charging module.
