the mac i;ve been using for i don't know how long and that i've bruised, scratched, dented and generally done everything short of put in a blender has finally sustained a fatal wound. i've overheated the motherboard too much, the keys are starting to fuse and the mouse pad isn't quite as reliable as it used to be, and the whole thing is essentially in it's death throes.

no more super duper shiney thing doesn;t mean no more prokadae, though.  still have that old heap in my room(which i loathe because its from the 80's and covered in so much dust i'm surprised i don't die of suffocation in the night) and the ipad(which i only moderatley dislike because it cant do flash and it multitasks like a one winged emu flies), soooo...yeah.
