Thoughts about the Zune.

Seriously, why, WHY, PERCHE’! Why BROWN?
Anyway, I wouldn’t buy it either if it was white and better than an iPod.
*pet his nano* (this looked weird after I wrote it but I’ll keep it…)
Update: my lil’ Macbook

Just for the records. I had a macbook in repair a while ago
They kept my precious for a month. Changed the logic board. No more light flickering, yay! Changed the topcase. It was so shiny, for a while. Now with my dirty hands it’s not.
I’m afraid on the long run it’ll break again, it already have marks where it broke the other time. I guess I’ll have to live with that.
Battery and AC adapter: THEY DIDN’T EVEN LOOK AT THEM.
The thing is that here in Italy we don’t get to have Apple Stores with Mac Geniuses, but private shops, often (not always, you’ll see) with Dumbasses™ working there.
Now the warranty is over (although for italian consumer law I should get 2 years. I’ll look into that).
The charger still have false contacts, and the battery was down to an astonishing 60% of capacity.
But here’s the good news. I walked into another service shop, because I was too lazy to cross the city and go where I bought the thing. Well, without a receipt, just by looking up the serial code of the machine, they checked if Apple had a warranty extension on my battery, and CHANGED IT, right on the money. Shiny new battery. I *love* when people do their job and they do it right. If only those suckers in the first shop cared to look into the problem (and they had a month to do it)…
Now, let’s go fighting my private war with the first shop over the battery charger. Should I have to shed 60€ + VAT, I’d rather do it for Leopard.
Stay tuned, more to come.
Japanese night

I’ve been watching too much Heroes lately, and tonight I found myself willing to learn Japanese.
As for my other weird ideas, It’ll pass. For the time being, I got my name in Nihon-go. Hai!!
My japanese name is 森田 Morita (forest field) 雄大 Masahiro (big hero).
Take your real japanese name generator! today!

If you’ve been wondering, yes, I’m ill (strong common cold) and I’m killing time.
Stay tuned, more to come

I might have an idea about WHY she left you :-)
Just kidding, I think it’s brilliant.
Stay tuned, more to come.
