It's a sad day.

My iBook screen died yesterday.

The monitor on Logan's machine, that previously worked just fine is now dying. In fact, this is my second attempt at posting, the monitor keeps going black requiring a restart.

It didn't do this before I started using it.

This is the 4th monitor I've been using to die in less than a year.

This points to some magnetic issue in relation to me, does it not?

The boy at the 'Genius Bar' assured me, as he pried my beloved computer from my hands, it would only be about 5-7 days. Until then I'm limiting my exposure to Logan's machine.

I don't want to break another monitor.

As an aside, I think the 'Genius Bar' is really a sarcastic jab at the people who come to the 'Genius Bar'. Because I saw no evidence of Genius from either side of the bar.

My favorite was when 'Genius Boy' told some poor man that he was sorry but 'the iPod really isn't meant for running' and his iPod was freezing up because of the running.

It took all of my strength not to Out-Genius the Genius by saying, 'That's odd, my husband just ran 15 miles, in a row, last weekend with his iPod and it didn't freeze up on him. In fact, it used to freeze up on him and he sent it back to Apple and they replaced it with a new one.'

I didn't say that because I just want to make sure iBook is well treated while we're apart.

"Genius" indeed.

Maybe they call it 'genius bar' because there's a bar on employing geniuses. "Aggressive and snotty only need apply."
I'd rather go without my land line than my computer--that's a crappy sitch you got there. My sympathies--and g'luck with rapid repairs.
