"I Clevo'ed my computer"
after installing a security update on my five year old PowerBook this past week, the machine would no longer complete the reboot process.
was able to boot off an OS install dvd, run some diagnostics and determined that there was unrepairable damage to the disk. first time i've ever had
this problem with a mac.
reformatted the drive, reinstalled the OS, downloaded subsequent updates and the machine is running like new again.
thanks to regular backups, i didn't loose much, but this was no longer my primary machine anyway. i think this is gonna be the itunes / streaming
netflix / kids' machine now.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

AHAHAHAHHAHAHA. I am still laughing at the thread title. That is too fucking good. Terrible what happened, but still a funny thread. My computer is
fucked. I got to take this back in in the morning. May be off the board for a couple days because of it.

Perfect. Poor Clevo.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?
