So, I just called FirstTech in Minneapolis. They will send it to apple to have it replaced. 24-48 hours is the current turn-around time. Hopefully my roommate will give me a ride to Uptown to do it today. I could take the bus, but it is so gosh-darned humid out. UGH. I am going to conserve battery now and use his gateway to do all my sites. Wish me luck! (luck <g>). -- Ryan -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
