Q: My Ibook G3 is shutting off
Hello guys,
My Apple Ibook G3 (not sure if it is a G3, but the model number is A1007 and is from 2002) hasn't been working for a while and I recently stumbled upon it and wanted to fix it. I have heard that my problem occurred a lot in G3 and G4 models of Ibook. My problem was the screen would randomly turn black or blue and freeze up and I would have to restart it and loose any progress in work, which later made me switch to a Dell PC desktop. (I am now back with apple). I was wondering if anyone could help me as in telling me what is wrong, how to fix it, and what parts I need. (Also if I can take it into an Apple store). Please tell me if anyone else has been having this problem with their G3/G4 Ibook PC. I am very appreciative of any help as I very much wish to restore my favorite ever PC.
*SIDE NOTE
Does anyone else's smell very pleasant, kind of like a nice plastic? I find it very pleasing.
(Sorry for the weird uncalled for side note, not trying to be weird)
Thank you so very much,

I don't know if I still have the original charger/adapter, and my computer is completely dead. Can I possibly take it to an apple store and have them do it for me?
