Good Day / Bad Day

Time for Good Day/Bad Day.

Good Day:
  • Got Myst 5 in the mail and installing it as I type!


Bad Day:
  • Can't get in touch with MGH to get a doctor, will have to try Beth Isral tomorrow.
  • It will cost $700 to fix my PowerBook


Remember how my PowerBook can't latch closed? Went to the Apple Store today and was told that it was physical damage, not a defect, and not covered under warranty.
Tech: "Since no one else has this problem, it's not a defect. But I've seen people use rubber bands to keep the lid closed."

Me: "Wait, you just said no one else has this problem, yet you're telling me how other people fix this non-existant problem?"

Tech: "Oh, they had the upper latch broken off. Your's is the bottom latch."

I need to read up on the AppleCare and figure out my next move. I honestly don't have a clue why this broke in the frist place, and the piece is still inside the latch hole via magnetism. Sounds like a design defect that catches itself.

But now it's time for Myst!
