The five stages of computer death
2008-02-01 08:00
by Bob Timmermann
  1. Denial - "Oh, it's nothing. I'll just turn the computer off and on and it will all get back to normal. Those noises are all normal parts of the way the computer works."
  2. Anger - "WORK! WORK! I order you to work! Boot up! Don't make that funny buzzing sound! You're not supposed to buzz! WORK!"
  3. Bargaining - "Well, I did backup nearly everything on to an external hard drive, but if you just boot up once and let me copy a couple of files, that's all I need."
  4. Depression - "Why me? Why did this laptop which I've dropped a dozen times and spilled six different types of drinks and five levels of the food pyramid on decide to fail me now?"
  5. Acceptance - "Off to the store to go buy a new one. I want a shiny one!"

I think it was during "Lost" last night that I got my first look at the new Mac Airbook.

Now that's shiny!
