Dead Monitor Open Thread

Don’t you hate it when you turn on your monitor and nothing happens? The 30” display for my Mac Pro desktop machine simply failed to light up this morning. No power light, USB ports don’t work, screen dark. I have two monitors, so I swapped the cables into the video card — the second monitor still worked in the other port, so it’s not the card. Unplugged and plugged in another power outlet, still nothing. He’s dead, Jim.

Good thing I bought an AppleCare extended warranty for this baby. Here’s an open thread while I visit the Apple store and use it.
