Again...

Posted in Technology/Computers

    If I were to choose one word to describe my iBook, it would have to be "survival".  That laptop has taken more beatings than any piece of hardware should be able to withstand. 

    In other words, it suffered from the Dreaded Logic Board Error again.  The GPU has fried twice in the last two days.  I think that it is doing that because the temperature has been over 80 degrees for the last several days.  I'm assuming that the air temp, combined with the heat generated from running the computer, caused it to crash on me. 

    I have been fortunate enough to be able to save it, but I want to be on the safe side.  I bought a set of CD-RW discs for backing up my documents and pictures.  One of these days, that laptop will die, and I won't be able to save it.  I want to be ready when it happens.

    I'm probably going to get a job this month.  Once that happens, I'm planning to save up and buy a new MacBook.

Sorry about your Mac, Jake. That really stinks!
I have really liked my Vostro. Maybe you would too! I think it would be nice to have a Mac, they are pretty nice!

Why did you go buy a pack of cd-rw, instead of just buying a flashdrive? They are about the same and the drive can hold way more!

Well I hope you will be able to get that job at the library and save enough money soon! It's hard being without a laptop!
:D

ttyl!

Hey, my dad's old laptop, which was made in 2000, has gone through the same tipe of stuff, from a few over seas deployments to cross country moves. And we finnally got a new computer, so I sorta got the old laptop, and I've been caring for it. The reason we got a new computer was because it was dying, and we couldn't afford to be computerless, but, I've been bring it back to its old health.
Its not a mac, but a dell. the only mac I own is my iPod touch, which is one of the best things I've bought.

Andyhow, do you mind If I add you to my friends list?
