Disaster!

The 15" MacBook Pro took a dump today!

So I hotfooted to the Apple Store (tm) in Tampa to see what they can do to fix me up.

They think that it's the video card, it's covered under warranty, new mobo.

That will take anywhere between 5 and 90 days, emphasis on the 90. They do not guarantee the data on the machine if it has to be shipped back to China or if they replace the entire machine, even if I plunk down the $50 for the data back-up.

They will transfer my data into a new MacBook for free. Well, not free, for the price of a new MacBook. Which I plunked down for. So I have a new machine and the old one will return someday as a spare.
