Rotten Apple

November 08, 2005

It's been a while since I've updated the blog on a regular basis. My slim and sleek, all white, fancy-pants Apple iBook G4 crapped out on me some time back...some LONG time back. I took it to the Apple Store in Germantown so the good folks at the "Genius" Bar could take a look at it. And they did. And then they shipped it off to be fixed by elves. Upon its return a week later, many of the glitches remained, along with some new glitches that I hadn't even asked for! So I returned to Germantown and the Geniuses who, in turn, returned my iBook to their elves, who kept it for three(!) weeks. They've only just returned it and (so far) it seems to be working well. I'm back.

The elves you speak of actually work here in memphis for a company i recently left. ( i will not name names) but if you got it back in any working order consider yourself lucky. i quit because the "computer techs" they were "training" to fix the laptops were fresh across the border and could not even speak english.
p.s.- all the parts they use to "fix" the laptops are refurbished. no new parts.
if you feel it would be better not to post this on your blog, that's ok. i just wanted you to know what was going on with your laptop.
