Mac Withdrawls
Thursday, July 3rd, 2008On Sunday my Macbook froze and when I tried to boot power down and boot back up it gave me a screen with a folder icon with a question mark on it. Yikes! I freaked out! Tried to to boot it up but it just wouldn’t boot. I called a friend of mine who is a Mac Expert and he tried to walk me through some ideas that he had. Nothing worked. So I took it in to the Apple Store to see what they would say. Sure enough the drive had a catastrophic failure. THey still have it because the new drive hasn’t come in yet.
Now it’s been 3 days without my mac book and I sorely miss it. I picked up a Mac Mini just so I could get some work done as well as editing shots from my shoot with Rose but I miss being able to edit photos or my site, for that matter, from anywhere. It’s amazing how much I miss the portability of the laptop when I don’t have it with me.
The mini has been a great so far and I hope that it continues to be a great computer for home use but it can’t replace my laptop. I hope it gets fixed soon cause I’m goin’ nuts without it! They said 3-5 days but I’m hopeful that they’ll call me tomorrow to say it’s fixed.
I guess I’l have to wait another day
