MacBook health scare
The house feels very empty today.
My 7 week old MacBook has gone to the computer hospital, and it looks like he will be spending a week or more there - for surgery.
It all started on Sunday, when he blacked out all of a sudden. We were surfing the net, when suddenly, without warning, he had a total power failure.
On Monday morning, the problem got worse, with power failures nearly every 15 minutes. We rang Apple tech support and they gave us some over the phone first aid, but it didn't work.
So today, he was admitted to the computer hospital.
Apparently, a number of others have been struck down with similar afflictions as I discovered on the Apple support forums.

Yeah. Sorry to hear that. My Bro in Law has a MacBook and we were gearing up for a family video ling when the other Bro in Law was with him in Belfast. The message came through that his machine had died (wouldn't switch on) and taht it had been sent off for CPR.

Did he get one of the early ones as well? I've got a feeling it might be a problem with the first batch
