I woke up on Saturday morning, pressed the space bar to 'wake it up from its sleep' and everything froze.
Hmmm.
I restarted the only way I really could. I pushed the button and held it until the screen went black and all sounds were nulled to complete silence. When it started up again, it took about 1 hour to call up the desktop screen and the only thing that loaded up was my background photo. W T F ?
Packed her up, got into my car and brought it right to the Geek Squad at Best Buy. Three dudes told me that they were sorry to say that although files could be backed up one way or another, there was NO hope for fixing it. The data processor motherboard thingy was all ruined and worn out and I'd just have to buy a new one.
PARDON???
I waltzed around the store in a daze glancing at the new shiny laptops with their insane pricetags. I'm envisioning having to pick one up this week, but I still want to get a second opinion from some mac nerds tomorrow. I'm using a PC for the time being and it's a very uncomfortable feeling.

im sorry for your loss.
did you backup?
i have to bring it in to apple or best buy to back it up.
please take good care of my mouse until this is sorted out further.
you and Lenny should make your own "i'm a mac, and I'm a PC" commercial
lol. that'd be pretty fun!
dells want to be macs so bad.
Ohhh girls. What an appropriate time for your mac to break, no?
I really wish I had a smart come back to all this, but I don't. Well I mean I don't have any kind of comback that you'd be able to understand....being mac users and all.
'dells want to be macs so bad.' - made me laugh out loud at work. Nice 1.
Linda, I'll let you use my trusty old PC in place of your mac. Actually, bring your mac over, I need a placemat.
ahhhhhlolol.
Lenny, i love you sometimes!
I will not give you the mac to use as a placemat. People don't just give away sexy pieces of aluminum.
I WILL consider giving you one of my Apple laptop bags for you to throw your Dell in when you're traveling around to important places.
this is good.
we may still have our old Commodore 64 kicking around if you want to borrow it Linda
i just noticed that i spelt comeback two different ways. both wrong
