After trying everything I could think of I finally capitulated today and sent my beloved 17" PowerBook back to Apple.
It just kept freezing all the time, but only on the PSU, not the battery, plus I could freeze it by picking it up. Then it stopped waking from sleep, then it started corrupting the video on a regular basis, then it simply wouldn't boot.
This was the 4th new mac I've owned, and it's the first one I've had a moments problem with (bangs head against something wooden for luck).
I'm convinced it's a hardware fault, I've been running an almost identical system on my eMac and the old 15" PBook, and never had a problem.
I guess it's my own fault for ignoring my own rule about never buying the first revision of any technology, but it's so cute I just had to have one.
So, back to the 15" for a while...
