So The Reading Center had 4 laptops of which they thought were broker and they asked me to confirm it. Turns out that one of the powerbooks they asked me to check had a bad display and another powerbook had a bad logic board. Since they were both out of warranty, I got permission to swap the displays. It was a pretty easy process except for the fact that the airport card antennae cord wouldn’t reach to the airport card. This is the picture of the bad display and the bad logic board.

I had been hounding Campus Computer all week about when my Macbook Pro would be coming in. I had almost given up hope that I would get it in before the long weekend. But finally at around 12:45 today, they called and let me know that I could pick mine up from the store. I rushed over and grabbed it, switched out the 80gb drive for a 120gb and added an extra gig ‘o ram. Now just need to wait for everything to finish transferring….

Every now and then I have to cover for my old job at the Laptop Help Desk. Brings back memories.

Goodbye 17. You have served me well. Be good to your next owner.

In preparation for Aperture.

Oops how did Front Row get on my powerbook??

I have finally maxed out the RAM on my powerbook. I used to only have 1 gig of RAM but about half a year ago I upgraded to 1.5 gigs. My iPhoto with it’s 14,000 photos was still not appeased with my offering of RAM. It was occasionally freeze while I was commenting on pictures or importing them from my CF card. So I have finally got another stick of RAM to top it out at 2 gigs of RAM. I’m happy and iPhoto is happy. Horray.

My powerbook screen went black today and never came back up. I have a backlight problem. It would be easily fixed if I had AppleCare but since I bought this computer used, there was no way I could buy the warranty for it. So now I either have to figure out how to get it fixed myself, sell it as is, or pay Apple a ton of money to fix it. The moral of the story is, always buy Apple Care boys and girls.
