Well in the space of 18 months, I think I’ve broken some sort of record? 2 HP DV series laptops and 3 WD HDD’s all dead, thousands of files lost.. and nearly getting banned from Harvey Norman for going mad each and every time! This time I got my way and after 5 days got a full refund from HP and a very dirty look from a bimbo behind the counter.
After having €800 for less than an hour it was gone and I got myself a mac! A MacBook Pro to be exact, thanks to Ian the AppleMan at PC World in airside for talking me into parting with €1200 
So now I believe I fit the stereotype?
I’ve had it about 4 hours and I’m still trying to get the hang of the thing >.< It’s rather annoying going from Windows to Mac, and it’s all shiny and confusing and expensive.
