This machine #5065145 just died. It had served me faithfully crunching Seti 24/7 since August 12 2009.

I believe the PSU died. No magic smoke, No hint of any trouble at all.
I did a soft reboot as I do once in a blue moon. It rebooted Ok but the screen froze up. So I had to do a hard reboot. Well I cant get any power at all to the machine. No light,s no joy. I cant afford the cash right now to fix this.So sorry to my wing persons.

Edit- Sorry false alarm. It turns out my power button is going wonky. I just about poked my finger through the case to get the power back on. However its a wake up call that this machine is going to croak one day.
