My laptop took a dive off the kitchen ledge weeks ago, and since then I've spent hours on the phone with Dell to diagnose a host of problems. A damaged hard drive (alas all pictures lost...back up your computers people!), a damaged wireless card, and only today have I discovered the audio is damaged. If ever, by the way, you are in the market for a laptop, buy.a.mac. The technology is such that in the midst of a spill the computer shuts down and protects the hard drive. Why hasn't Dell thought of this?
In any case, here's what we've been up to lately.
