When Macs break, they break. OMG. Mine fell last nite. Apparently, destroyed the backlight and the power supply. $1600 to fix; $1800 to replace. Not really coping with this right now. This was sooo not a planned expense.

Bummer fuzzball. Hang in there. I feel your pain too…
Hi zeph… you should set up a “Donate to replace zeph’s broken Mac fund”… I’d put a $20 spot in the pot, as I’m sure would others. This is what the new age is all about… peer-production and peer help. Let us help…
hey zeph… you need one of these: http://slate.msn.com/id/2080546/
damn, ouch. If it makes you feel any better, there is a Titanium sitting on my desk with a screen that looks like a piece of digital art. Beautiful but utterly useless for computing…
Sorry for your monitor. As in the philosopher’s tale, you can always find somebody picking on what others left behind:
