Did I get an Apple for Christmas or a Lemon? Last week, while in preparation for Kid’s ROCK LIVE! my macbook died yet again. I’ve only had it 4 months and have sent it to Apple three times for service. The closest Apple Care Center is two hours away.

I love my Mac when it works.

What else could be the answer to my plight? There is no other explanation in science or nature to the problems I have been facing with my beloved Christmas present.

On Christmas Day, my husband presented me with the laptop of my “dreams” a Mac Book. After working and working with it, thinking I was an idiot, I called Apple Care. Confirmed, no idiot here just a defective macbook. After 5 phone calls my macbook was finally on her way and a new one was being sent to me.

Of course I was making a trip and had to take my 87 lb laptop and 42 lb dvd burner with all the cables and such. The new laptop came the day after I left.

In the last two weeks, I have really buckled down to learn the Mac commands and new way of doing things. I’ve searched the forums for short cuts and even put in my own xcode to run some video software I needed.

Last night, I went to open up Macy and the screen was black. There was an annoying beeping noise  and my husband could see my frustration rising. He gets out his PC laptop and googles the problem and tells me it’s SOS. GREAT!

I went through all the troubleshooting tips and none of them work. Call tech support and their closed. I call today and Macy is going back in the box again.

The only thing I can figure is my personality is so magnetic and Mac’s are so sensitive that I keep messing with their parts. That’s all I got.
