The White iBook is a Lemon

Guess whose iBook is on Logic Board failure No. 3?

So yes, I'm back to using Toys's desktop machine and/or my backup laptop, an Old Tyme G3 with a busted keyboard and no battery power. So I'll probably be a little less accessible over the next week or so, sigh. It's as if the universe decided I was having too much fun with the writing lately...

Ah, I can remember the days back when Apple had never done a product recall... damn, and I didn't think I'd feel so old at 20. ;o) Such is life. Here's hoping they make with the quicky quicky with the replacement.

From another Mac user, albeit a slightly luckier one so far (this Old Tyme G3 at least has a functional keyboard, even if battery power is but a distant memory and it's on its third hard drive; meanwhile, my Dad's iBook doesn't recognise the trackpad anymore... still, not too bad...)

... Crap. I just jinxed it, didn't I?

So, I suppose between Toys' crazy deadlines, and your broken laptop, we can expect much in the way of epic battles for computer time? Preferably in the form or some sort of oil wrestling? No?

Oh, fuck! Mine, too! The second logicboard finally gave up the ghost last night. Good thing it has been a backup for ages while I moved on to PC land.

God, I hate macs.
