And we all fall down (Update)
I told my boss about my spill down the stairs, he talked to his boss, I called the Mac repair place and got estimates. It will cost my employer between $400 and $1000 (nice range eh) to fix it. The reason for the price variance is that if they have a dead MacBook they can Frankenstein the monitor from they can replace mine for $400 if not with labour it will be close to $1000. My employer has agreed to pay it with the caveat that if it happens again I get stuck with a desktop and no more laptops for me. This is an understandable position given my current record with these things. My boss was quite cool about it over all though.
