First of all, Swordmaker is the guy to talk to about all things Mac. I think his real name is Wozniak.

Second, you don’t need Mac Disks any more. You can download all the OSX versions and install from Flash drive.

If you are in San Diego, I have firewire cables. If not, as someone said, order from Frys or Amazon.

Thanks, I kinda know my way around our macs, been dealing with them since 92(mac performa! LOL!).

I do need either a disk or a firewall cable, as the iMac wants to be just a big paperweight, with a lit screen. If I could find my firewire cable, I could use my MacBook as the boot drive and use the Target Disk Mode.

Thanks for offering to help! I appreciate it.
