I love my Dell Inspiron 8100 so much! Just before Gnomedex II, its screen crapped out (which sent me into a nightmarish tech support spiral). The power adapter went belly up a few months ago – and last night, the hard drive decided to take a nose dive without permission. I tried feeding it some Linux, but it still refused to play nicely. I'm off to the online Support form to see if I can get the issue resolved without any kind of vocal interaction. Well, at least the Family Guy DVD boxed set is here to keep me company until Gretchen gets home.
