:: sigh :: Well, my beloved laptop is in for repairs after 2 great years of service. Tea and laptops apparently don’t go well together. Paid the (up front) $140 labor cost for diagnosis, but if it’s overcostly to repair, I’ll just suck it up and use Whitney’s trusty (if slightly bruised) Thinkpad R40.
I’m not upset about it, just sad, really. I liked that Powerbook G4 quite a bit. Just hoping I can recover the data off it after CompUseless (Eric’s term) is through with it.
