The weekend before taking my first ICT in-service, with my notes, and life, safe on the machine, and backed up onto my mac, the sight of smoke was not encouraging. It’s subsequent death was regrettable. What was not anticipated was that the mac would also roll over the next day. With the back up.
I was left with a very unpredictable and unwilling desktop, and shredded nerves. The course passed, but the lack of serviceable internet connection for the holiday, and no access to my usual programs produced what could only be called withdrawal.

Sort of says it all, doesn’t it!

Was it the battery? Apple has a recall service……….free!
Thanks Alastair. As it turns out, I never found out, as the pixies in Inveraray fixed it. I think it was a deeper problem – something with hard disk, screen and connectors. I still havent got my PC back though! Graham
