Is.. there... anybody... OUT THERE?
Oi, hey, sorry, lax lax lax. The instability isn't exactly cured but I have Mackie back and it's a bit more tolerant. Didn't even know computo numero uno abandoned me? Well it was before I was blogging at full speed. Are we still in ABFS? Mai ruu (don't know) k))i duu l33w gam (we'll see). Ain't l33tsp34k me droogies, it's a pitiful attempt at IPA (the alphabet, not the beer) sans unicode. What freakin codepage is IPA again? Baaack to wikipedia. Still do read. But the writing's suffered a GTA-SA attack. What a bad game. Bad socialization, bad ethics, worst of all is how addictive it is. (un?)luckily for you the PC's illin now. So I create a few words instead of virtual mayhem. Maybe I'll talk about Hitchens and Randi over at Blogster if I can't fix it.
I didna fix Mackie. While we were still living at the salon she decided against powering up. Took a few weeks for me to give up, the PC was adequate, and had the Internet connection anyway. That's how I got on support.apple.com and self-diagnosed. Internal LEDs go, internal reset mai pai (no go). Logic board says support.. Another couple of months before I finbally bother to drag it to Apple Chiang Mai. Sometime to find a location, some time to talk to them, mostly just that I am now on Thai Time. Mai penrai. Actually it's Matt time, why I am here and not NYC. Thai time is loose but Matt time is far looser. Took me months, took them a week. Glad I bought the three year warranty, this is at least the 3d time Mackie's died. Logic board, video board, logic board. The 1.8 GHz G3 was a lemon. Actually this time it was the power supply, so much for support.. And supposedly I now have a switching unit (I was using a transformer before, now not) but I'm a little reluctant to test it. I haven't told you about blowing up the Korg or the Roland yet, have I? Lax.
