I've got a nasty problem with my iBook 700. This afternoon it was being a little strange with the battery (I thought it might've been related to the system, so I reinstalled it), and now it will simply not even turn on at all. When I press the power button, nothing happens. However, the battery seems to charge and the power light is green when plugged in. Any theories or ideas of what I could try? It is our of warranty and sending it in to Apple is not financially an option.

update: a techie friend of mine told me to reset the power manager (cntl-opt-shift-power) and it worked. Remember that trick.
