Not really sure why the Canadian percentage is so high, but whatever...

My logic board seems to be thinking about dying again, even though it just got replaced last summer. At least it waited until I got back to the US. *sigh* The whole thing's going into the shop tomorrow, so I'll be reading for comps and taking a sabbatical from the computer for a bit, probably. (This is probably a good thing, as I really do need to start reading...just needed impetus like this, really.)

I had been considering jumping to a new Mac after I got a new job, maybe even a *gasp* desktop (no logic board problems there!). But the Intel announcement has stopped me from even considering that for the next year.

As it stands. I'll take in my iBook once I have steady income, just in case they charge me for shipping again.

Yeah, I just can't seem to part with portables, even if they do seem to fall to pieces pathetically easy (both Mac and PC).

I doubt I'll get a shipping charge this time because I'll go the extra distance to the Apple Store. I've only ever been charged for shipping at MicroCenter, so I think I'll be good. But I don't have the money to spare at the moment if I'm wrong.

In the meantime, my duct-taped PC is adequate.

And fashionable, too, what with the duct tape and all. Well, fashionable for a PC, anyway. ;)

I just wish I had some blue tape to keep it together. That would be even better than duct tape.

I'd rename it Big Blue if it were an IBM machine. :)

Ooh. Now I have to get blue tape and have a go at it. Probably write "Shallow Blue" in tape on the back or bottom, too.
