"dear mac book gods...

...please let our mac book still be under warranty as we may have killed the hard drive.
i know we may have lost everything in the memory which would suck...
let the genius tomorrow be gracious and have mercy on our poor souls..friends, send us your good thoughts...

amen."

i type here from our desktop G3.

it is slow, but it works....oh the sadness, oh the humanity :(
