[DM-MUG] Dead macbook

[Victoria L. Herring]

I certainly don't know but sometimes if you run the battery way way 
down [for instance, as happened to me, you are plugged into a socket 
in a hotel room but it's not really charging you and soon the battery 
is 'dead'] - I think there's something you can do = works for me 
usually when I let a computer get powered way down = plug the MB into 
a good socket, hold down the power button forever == really, 
forever...several minutes may be needed - 5? -- then un hold down and 
then do it again = it should start up and the screen will look foggy 
and there will be little hatchmarks going L to R across the bottom of 
the screen but it will power up.
