Dead as a doornail, as Dickens might put it.  Less than a month after purchase.The problem?  Ya plug the AC adapter in, and it gives you the pretty glowing orange LED light that tells you electricity is running to it&#8230; and then the power source indicator continues to tell you about your battery&#8230; and how it is running out&#8230; 50%&#8230; 30%&#8230; 10%&#8230; 5%&#8230; uh-oh.  Computer down. After much poking, prodding, and trying new power adapters, the Apple-authorized mac specialists in town (and I) deemed the machine dead.  As a doornail.

The machine&#8217;s been mailed out to them, and I fully expect to see it again.In the meantime, I embark on the last legs of my East Coast journey laptop-free (*horrible scream*), with my dear Treo in my back pocket (*sigh of relief*).  I&#8217;ll be back in the Bay Area next Thursday.  Until then, I wander the hills&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heads up, this content is 20 years old.
