She lives,, I replaced the inverter and the power supply, not that hard of a job (I've done worst). I picked up the parts on a famous auction site both for well under $100 and with the Guides found on ifixit i brought new life to this Imac, after replacing the parts the screen seams brighter and stronger. I got this mac for the wife and now I think she'll love me long time (LOL).
Thanks ifixit, your my heroes,
