Apple Macbook

[weaktwos]

Apparently, there's been a bru-ha-ha on the apple support boards about the white Macbooks. After about a 3 weeks of use, there shows a discoloration around where the wrists would rest on the unit.

Well, thankfully, Apple is now accepting responsibility for it as a Manufacturer's defect.

This is good news, since I have decided to sell my current ibook to a friend whose laptop suffered a sudden death. I'll use the proceeds of the sale to offset the costs of my new macbook. :-)

So, taogrl will get:
-1 ibook g4 with 1.2 gb of ram.
-1 bluetooth dongle--she can use this with any bluetooth device she might ultimately acquire, be it a pda or cell phone.
-1 plastic keyboard cover
-1 Laptop bag for a 12" ibook.
-1 charge unit, with extension cable.
-recovery diskets
-whatever software I have on there, minus all my porn.*

I just ordered my new baby tonight, and it should arrive in a week.

Work today ended up being longer than anticipated. Drum lessons were educational as always.

I think I got drunk dialed tonight. He sounded pretty tipsy.

I've renewed my City of Heroes account again. Currently I created a defender on the Victory server for a few friends who needed one. Her name is "Miss Redd". She's up to level 9, and has only died twice so far!

That's it for now. Bed awaits.

City of Heroes eh? You should check out City of Villains too (one subscription covers both games, but you have to buy CoV).

My global is @torsoheap and I've got characters on Victory, among others.

I just bought COV today. What is this thing they call "global"? Is that for email purposes within the game?

Oh, I get it now. My handle is @zarathustra

Ah. You tried to add me as a friend tonight, but I rejected it because I didn't know who you were. I do now.

[weaktwos.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's what I figured, I was on my way out for a bit anyway. :-)

I have a level 4 brute named Eero on Victory right now.

What's the link you tried to leave? It seems to show up as a relative link, because clicking it takes me to "eyow.livejournal.com/friends/W21568360".

Thanks for the catch! I corrected the original post, but here's the url: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Apple-Acknowledges-MacBook-Stains-As-Manufacturing-Defect-28129.shtml

Mine has no discoloration, and it has the rough finish that the article was talking about.

[weaktwos.livejournal.com]

maybe you have the perfect skin for the ibook. ;-) Maybe it's just filthy man-folk that have the problem. But according to the complaints, some are compulsively clean.

I wonder how long they leave their computers running. I usually shut mine down every few hours, so there might be less heat.

Consensus says it's not from heat. Though it does run hotter.
