iBook Update
My iBook is going back yet again to Apple for repair. I had to call them on the 8th due to the hardware issues I started having after getting it back. Seems I was unable to get a working operating system on it. When I got it back it took 1 hour to boot to Jaquar. My utilities were telling me that the S.M.A.R.T. drive diagnostics were failing, and I kept getting bad blocks (over 80) every time I reformatted the drive with zeros. It would still report bad blocks and the S.M.A.R.T. drive failures after this. I initially thought they replaced this hard drive, because it sounded different. It didn't sound like my old hard drive that came with the iBook that had absolutely no problems before getting it back from Apple. Also, the new 24x Toshiba combo drive would not eject a CD without using a paper clip to open the door.
My question to the phone tech at level 2 was, "What did they do toss it around the room?" He chuckled.
This time they are replacing the hard drive, and the combo burner (yet again). This is turning into a nightmare.
