Might still be some hope for the hard drive, right?


Either way, that sucks!

Don't blame this on the Mac. Mine works great....but I dont offer it Kool-Aid, either.

Agreed. I love my Mac and my husband's PC is a constant pain in the ass.

Do you have a local Apple Store? Take it to the Genius Bar. They might be able to save your data.

YOU drink the kool aid then buy a Mac, not buy a Mac and give it Kool aid.

Sorry to hear about your mishap.

One weekend my son woke me up my saying, "Daddy. Sienna poured juice in your laptop and it still works." He was impressed. I was pissed.

Of course it's never obsolete. It has so many stickers that it must have more speed than a ricer-mobile.

Will, hate to hear about the comp. Hope someone can save your data.

got my repair bill from mac yesterday...

$775
new optic drive, hard drive and main logic board... top case and bottom case

the kicker is that they said because it was a field unit that they automaticly think it was damage from a drop cause the corners were chipped and had to replace the casing too

FML
calling the mac repair shop here in Nashville to see if I can get it done for cheaper with not repairing the case

I'm actually the apple campus rep for missouri state. lol. Now I have my 2.5 year old white macbook, a free 13 inch pro and a free ipod touch. All still run like champs. Hope you can get everything done for a decent price without losing everything.

i am pretty sure i lost everything, but the local apple shop said they would try and save the harddrive unlike the apple store that was planning on just scrapping it

Oh, and it is definitely time to beat the shit out of the roommate.

That sucks hopefully they can get all you're stuff off.

At least you don't have to pay for the repair
