Well this machine is no better. Apple replace the motherboard and hard drive, then said there is nothing more they can do, despite it still being under warranty?!
It has just crashed again. Working away and bang, black screen and powered down all by itself. It did a report when it came back up (THANKFULLY it did come back up this tijme, usually i have to restore from TM about every 1-2 weeks when it does this). I have pasted the message below, and really hope someone with more brains than me can spot some idea of what the heck is wrong with this lemon 😟
Thanks to all of you who have tried to help. Not a fan of Apple any more, which is saying something for me.
