Make it damned near impossible to fight a war in the tropics, don't they?

Thanks for your suggestions, Starmac.

1. Freezing my deuced Mac(hina) is pointless, because the "blue screen" issue is unguessably intermittent.

2. The "Geniuses" were apparently guessing at a heat problem when they changed my fan, but the end result was a recurrence of my main issue along with some new ones.

3. No external monitor available, and same problem with "intermittent-cy."

I've got a request in to borrow a friend's camera, so I can maybe capture the "blue screen" the next time it shows up, but I've also got a new beta of the rsync front end I've been testing, and I think my best bet may be to try to push my Mac to a precipitous, catastrophic failure (when I can afford the down-time).
