Frelling Design Flaw
Posted By Kathleen David on July 27, 2004
You have to understand, I love Apple computers. I grew up using them. I have lost count how many my family had owned over the years. I wrote my master’s thesis on one. I have been a good loyal user. I learned a lot about Microsoft and PCs because for my various jobs over the years I have had to worked with them.
My I-Book screen has died for the second time. The wiring to the screen seems a little delicate for a computer you are suppose to be able to carry anywhere. I was lucky that it didn’t go until I was home since Airport security can ask that you turn your computer on. Also I ended up showing “Finding Nemo” to Caroline to keep her amused while we were waiting for everyone to be checked in at the Orlando Airport. Their computers were not working and they had to check in everyone and everyone’s bags by hand which added 2 hours to our trip.
So I have to off load the harddrive and ship it off to to be fixed…again. I still love Apple computers.
Well, if it makes you feel any better Kath, I too use Macs. The one Apple laptop that I had also lost it’s screen, so you may be right about a design flaw.
On the other hand, I now have two PC laptops ( although I use desktop Macs at home) that I take to work with me so I can write my scripts and novels. Both laptops suffered from the same thing recently, the wandering start-up file. Had to re load the operating system on one of them. The other doesn’t have a CD rom so i can’t reload the operating system.
Until then, you can take my Mac when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.
On an unrelated note, tell Glen to fix your comment block. I can’t post until I go to PAD’s blog first and sign in there. There is no Typekey Sign in link on your site… or his for that matter.
