Hey,
I've had my G4 about a year now and it's suddenly got quite snarled up (probably with all the junk I've downloaded no doubt!) Now things like pressing the eject button on the keyboard doesn't open the cd drive. I thought I'd reformat, as I have lots of time on my hands, and I'm not really fussed about programs that fix as a system.
BUT how do I do it? I'm used to reformatting PC's but I've never done a mac. Is it as simple as putting the cd in, running disk utility and wiping the drive?
Thanks!
