Dancing Finale
Ok, well Helio won. Congrats to he and Julianne. I have to say I wished both Mel and Helio could have won. Mel did an awesome job. She and Helio were consistently the two couples I split my votes between the past few weeks. What’s rather humorous is what people are posting on the boards at abc.com. I guess some things never change. LOL!
MacBook Relief
I spoke to Apple today and they recorded my complaint about the crack in my laptop. They are sending me a box to send my laptop back to them to be repaired. What’s best is this is all covered under my warranty. Whoo hoo!
I called back later today to also let them know about the flickering of my screen. The flickering was something that hasn’t affected my software or actual running of the computer. I called in July to report something and made mention of it. The guy told me to take it to an Apple store to have it looked at, but I never did. I knew I wanted to check it out further since it just started not too earlier than July. They added that to my repair for the crack so it looks like it all be taken care of at the same time. At least, I hope.
The biggest concern I have is the fact that I’ll be without my laptop for about two weeks. What will I do at school and home? YIKES!
Huge Disappointment
Ok, what was going through the minds of the professional dancers of Dancing with the Stars? Just because you aren’t allowed to do lifts the whole season, does that mean you have to throw in EVERY lift imaginable?
This had to be the WORST freestyle (and last show prior to the finale) in the series’ history. I say “worst” because of the extremely high quality we’ve seen—for those who watch the show regularly—all season. Talk about a complete toss up! Sabrina did a better job in the “freestyle” performance that she did the other week compared to tonight’s episode.
Again, huge disappointment.
Cracked MacBook
I’m SO frustrated. A corner of my laptop split, about an inch from the right front corner. For MacBook owners, they’ll know where it is because this has been reported before. I’m just hoping my AppleCare Plan covers it. What’s worse is that while working on it, I fragment has peeled off so I had to tape it to protect it from further damage.
What’s frustrating is that this happened under normal usage. I don’t put my laptop through any extraordinary circumstances. I use it for school and carry it in my Brenthaven Edge I case. I even have so far as to get a keyboard protector to keep my screen clean and scratch-free and a protector for my data ports.
Other than that, I’ve been having another similar problem that I’ve read about regarding intermittent (and extremely annoying) outages of my Airport. While browsing it just goes offline. I called AppleCare and they have it on record. I’ve been planning on calling them back because it’s been an unresolved issue. I should have called them earlier, but it hasn’t resolved itself. I don’t notice the problem when I’m hooked up to my base station.
We’ll see what happens. Has anyone noticed these problems and reported them? Were they picked up under AppleCare?
