Heavy User

In the past few days...

Our desktop's motherboard died.

One of our Tivo's died.

My laptop battery died.

And trust me when I say me and G are really mad about all these problems.

No desktop = no music.

No Tivo upstairs = no 11 o'clock news not to mention a whole bunch of other shows.

No laptop battery = no sitting on the couch with my laptop.

When G called the Mac folks to find out if the batter is covered by warranty the guy said no.  Apparently I've used 429 cycles of battery life since I've had this thing and that would be considered a "heavy user."

I think the demise of the desktop, Tivo, and battery are all the result of heavy usage. 

Don't the say the first step in overcoming an addiction is to admit you have a problem?
