I’m not saying I’m a genius, but I AM smarter than an Apple “Genius”
So, after my computer started acting up and there appeared to be nothing I could do about it, I brought it to the apple store today for a consultation with an alleged “Genius.” Ten minutes later his diagnosis was “dying hard drive.”
I can believe that. My computer is old, probably well beyond its unreasonably short life expectancy (c’mon Apple! I know you are paving the way in new technologies, but I’ll be most impressed when you make a product that lasts more than a few years). But I still didn’t believe that there wasn’t at least a short term remedy to get it in working order again. (i.e. something to prevent me from having to buy a new hard drive [or new computer!] TODAY)
So after after a significant amount of “fiddling around” (and UNinstalling the latest version of iTunes, thank you very much), the problem SEEMS to be fixed.
SUCK IT APPLE.
