I opened up my briefcase at noon to get my laptop out and jump on AR.......and this is what happened when I open the screen! Somehow I got an old phone case caught in between the screen and the keyboard then shut it and threw it in my briefcase. The pressure must have been too much and the screen is now toast! Luckily, I was still able to use my external screen to post a few things and I thought I would be able to manage but it is a no go. To boot, the cost of fixing the screen on my 6 year old MacBook was almost 2/3 what it would be for a new Mac book so I bit the bullet and got a new one. :/ No fun. Now I gotta get back on the water and blow off some steam......

Macs nail you in the wallet each time you purchase, but they sure are elegant machines. I use both at my desk, Mac and PC; I heart the Mac and swear at the PC from time to time.

Spinaker Once, 'round about 2001-2, I rather inelegantly plopped one of Motorola's first flip phone$$$, whilst removin ' a drain oil pan from underneath th' Cosmic Ark, right into th' pan, outta my front coveralls pocket.
My next cell phone, it got run over by an' '86 GM Defense CUCV M1009.
Certain ' bout that, 'cause I was th' driver...
