Okay, we think it's the Power Supply. Any other things it could be?
Press button, no chimes, nothing. Changing power cord does nothing.
Zapping PRAM and a few other tips on Apple's site does nothing.
It's the 2.4 gHz iMac that's DOA.
Thanks, guys, for any input on it, before I take it to Apple or
buy a new power supply and try to put it in myself.

Reset the SMC:
Unplug everything (USB too), including power cord.
Press Power Button for 15 seconds.
Plug power cord back in.
Wait 5 seconds.
Press Power Button.

called our local apple store. they will look at it for NOTHING and
recommend. power supplies don't cost much, so i'm thinking this
will be not a big deal. do i love apple?
