Hi - I have a professor whose G4 (aluminum) powerbook's disk seems to be 
dying/dead.  I can boot off an external disk, and can open a terminal 
window and do an ls on the disk, and it shows part of it, then stops.  
I've tried running several different disk repair tools, and it tries to 
access the disk but then freezes, and I have to force exit the 
application.  Assuming the problem is the disk (93G), does anyone know 
approximately how much does MIT charge to fix it?  Thanks. - Mark
