Gris,
maybe I'm getting the wrong mkv, but I avoid them like the plague if I have a choice.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Bonny, I would try two things. It looks like the div that surrounds your subscription box isn't defined. I would define its width and I would tell it to float right instead of align right.
Insent in a minute.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
So, um, my office Mac won't turn on.
More specifically, the monitor won't turn on. I can't tell if the actual computer is working or not, because, well, no monitor!
I've toggled all the cables and turned the whole thing off and on again several times in several different ways. (Holding the power button down, turning the power strip off, unplugging it...) I've even pressed that utterly useless on/off button on the side of the monitor a few times. Nada.
Any ideas? I'm about to swap out this monitor with the one from the other Mac to see if it's the monitor or maybe the monitor's power brick.
This would be an extremely shitty time for this machine to break.

Bonny, when I used contribute at work, I could only change text. If I tried to change anything about the look of the page, the webmaster had to go in and make the changes with dream weaver.

Not the power brick. Fuckity. And I just realized it's probably not the monitor, because the studio monitor's not showing anything either.
FUCK.IT.Y.
(Sorry, this isn't so much a question any more as it is a vent. But advice would still be welcome.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Does it play a chime when you turn the Mac on?
Is it on a network? Can you see it on the network?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Swapped the monitors, still nothing.
There's no chime. (Bad sign, I know.)
The Macs aren't networked. (They're connected to the internet, but outside the company firewall.)
(And neither has Airport, so I can't even try to detect it with my iPod.)

I've unplugged all the peripherals except the monitor, mouse & keyboard - still nothing. I hear drives spinning, but there's no chime and no response from the monitor.
Which is kind of a good sign because it means that the capture card probably wasn't the problem, but also a bad sign because it means I still have no computer.
From the sound the CPU is making, it sounds stuck in a loop. It keeps spinning up, slowing down, and then spinning again.
Shit. I'm going to have to lug this thing to the Apple Store aren't I?
