My Mac find of the day (of the year?)

Excellent, congratulations!
17" or 20"?

There are tips on various boards to look inside the audio port-- the red light should not be on if there's nothing plugged in-- supposedly tickling it with a toothpick can unjam the switch that tells it something is plugged in.

But if you've got external speakers, who cares . . .

Definitely check this out. Had this happen on my old MBP and thought the audio was dead. One night after I turned the lights out I saw the red glow coming from the minijack and realized the optical out was stuck. The only fix is to manually poke around with a toothpick and untrigger the button.

Before realizing this no audio on headphones or built in speaker.
