Sad Mac
February 23rd, 2006New Mac. Old Mac. Sad Mac. Dead Mac.
Mine is in that last stage. I spent the afternoon at John Gregory’s place, rebooting a great many times with a startup DVD. Eventually it boots, but Disk Utility fails. We backed up my user directory, which took two hours. In the mean time we walked around the Quarter delivering the new pocket sized edition of the Quater Crawl.
That was enough for one day. Tomorrow we run some agressive disk utilities. Then it’s open Mac surgery in the hope that something needs to be reseated.
In the mean time, I’m pecking away at an ancient VAIO Z505, in Windows 2000.
I’m very fortunate to know John. He’s got Macs upon Macs, and nothing but Macs.
