My macbook has a hardware issue.....I know, you're flabbergasted and
you say, "But Zaphod, Apples don't have hardware issues.  They are the
gods among laptops".  Sorry, but I'm going to have to burst your
bubble.  The nvidia chip burned up.  Interestingly, it's a known issue
and Apple seems to be replacing free of charge even if the laptop is
out of warranty.

I went to the local Apple store tonight to get it looked at but their
first available appt. was on Friday.  FRIDAY! Seriously.  Who can be
without their stuff that long.  Luckily, I know the manager of another
store in a nearby city that I'll drive to tomorrow.

The other cool thing is that the laptop still boots and I can ssh into
it and get whatever files I need.

What a PITA though.
