My laptop, Kobayashi Maru, stopped turning on last night (not good). Took it to the nearest repair shop, which took 2+ hours round trip because public transit (not good).
Just got a call that they finished the diagnostic and it will take at least until late next week for the new motherboard to come in and be installed (not great, especially since I have two exams, though it could be worse), but
IT IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, GLORY HALLELUJAH
(When I was dropping it off, the repair guy said it was probably the motherboard, and if so, it would cost almost as much as a new laptop...but would be covered under warranty unless there was evidence of water damage or excessive physical damage. So I have been in a state of āwell I havenāt really spilled anything on it but there WAS that SMALL SPILL on the trackpad like a few months ago so WHAT IF...ā for the last few hours. But he called a few minutes ago and itās all good! ^_^ My Kobayashi continues not to believe in a no-win scenario.)
