"We Have Some Bad News..."

The professional assessment of my ailing laptop: "Fried."

Fried motherboard, to be exact.

Oh, well...it lived a good and useful life.

Oh, praise be to God! You'll think I'm a lunatic (and I really am sorry about your laptop), but when I saw the blogpost title on my RSS feed, I was afraid it was about you or FT, and you've had so many scares lately.

I guess I should have attended to the quotation marks, and the tone they suggest.

Actually, Simpleton, for me it's kind of like losing an appendage...

DO NOT start replacing bits, though. I do that to computers (and cars) and they turn into money pits... ;-)

Oh, it's beyond piecemeal fixes...LC is dipping into the normally sacrosanct Parental Legacy Fund to get a new 'puter. Actually, the one I ordered is not only slightly faster, but also slightly cheaper than the original.

That wouldn't be a problem here in the South...they fry everything! A little BBQ sauce and there ya go!

Great! Now you can get a Mac Powerbook! If you didn't have one before, you'll never go back.
