Bloody m*c
Home
I have this free computer in my grasp now, it powers up and seems to work OK, but it wants a password, without which I can't even eject the CD drive, so I've no idea how to reformat it... any ideas? Any Mac types out there?
Work is getting a bit stressful, hope this move goes smoothly.
Had my last lunch in Sesame today, very sad.

ok, so you are powering it on and hitting the 'c' key
I think you have to hit it before the anoyingly smug little grey mac

when you say its got a password, is it a boot time password or does it boot then ask you for a password.
You do have a copy of the OS dont you??

Got the install CD's but can't make it boot off the CD. The system admin who set it up might have disabled this somehow. I can get the password for it but not until next week when everything's unpacked again from the move...
