Jason and his magnificent “CrackBook”

Okay, stupid title. Who cares?

Apparently the MacBooks have a well known design flaw that causes part of the thin plastic around the edges of the palm rests to crack and break off. Thankfully this is covered by AppleCare and their warranty.

Unfortunately early last week my poor MacBook got the crack on the front right edge of the palm rest. But fortunately my MacBook is still under warranty. So tomorrow I am taking it over to MacOutfitters to have it fixed. Of course this will take a few days, hopefully just two, but maybe more (Depending on the speed of delivery of the part.) so I am now preparing for her absence by transferring what files I will require to survive over to my trusty old Mac mini. It’s a first generation G4 Mac mini with a “slow as moles asses in winter” 4200RPM HD and a dead FireWire port.

Tomorrow she goes in for repair. Here’s to a speedy recovery, and new keyboard.
