We were discussing laptops this morning. Someone has got a new one. Is a little circumspect in using it. There are softwares to install. Network Access to obtain. Generally, let's give it a day and take things slow at first.
Someone has had it for a month now. The novelty is wearing off.
And this someone got his baby last year. It was my resignation gift to myself. Basically, I went on a bender one weekend. Bought my usual quota of books and the laptop. Used for an year. Battery could be better, but no complaints till it crashed some 20 days back.
Since it came back from the works, it was crashing every hour and making me quite perturbed. This is where we find ourselves this morning.
The mood is sombre, the lappy may have to go back again. I start discussing about my conversation with a guy in Varanasi. He had told me that all foreigners coming down to India generally had Apple MacBooks. They did not even allow the Indian technicians to touch the IP addresses. All they needed was to get the dust cleaned out once they had their fill of the ghats.
We are now in Apple territory. I am bugged with the OS crashing. Have heard the Leopard is very reliable.
And then big boom: "Dude! I have used the MacBook once. It is better than having sex." Both experiences need be taken with a pinch of salt. Both are essentially unverifiable.
P.S. I am more certain about the MacBook. Offence is meant but coincidental.
