The fate of my friend's iBook

12 Jan 2006

Whatever happened to my friend's iBook? If you recall, it was being repaired after its logic board packed up. He sent it to Apple. Apple returned it, and it didn't work. So he sent it to a local firm – with Apple paying – to have it repaired again. And then nothing happened.

Well, it turns out that when Apple fixed his logic board, they knackered his hard drive at the same time. The firm replaced his hard drive and now it works fine. Of course, he lost loads of data since he hadn't backed it up. Oh dear.

But naughty Apple. Don't break things when you're repairing your customers' computers!
