Not such a good solution after all

You may remember NewMexiKen mentioning last week that I tossed my Windows laptop several feet — and then surprisingly it did what I wanted it to do.

Alas, the machine retained some residual resentment and crashed hard Saturday. Indeed, now it won’t even boot in Safe Mode. At first it seemed the video card was loose; now it seems like a lot more than that.

No great loss. All the files are backed up (of course, aren’t yours?) and I was about to get a new MacBook Pro anyway, but I am a little ashamed of myself.
