I brought my iMac G5 in for service last Friday. Just to be safe I changed all my passwords to all my financial sites after I dropped it off just in case there was any lingering account information left on the hard drive.

As far as File Vault goes, they ask for your Admin account password when you drop it off. Wouldn't being logged into the Admin account automatically decrypt the Admin account's home directory?
