So this is sorta a rant. You see Brianne & I splurged on a new imac last November. At first we thought it was the greatest thing. Then after about a month of enjoying this apple dream it shut-off. That’s right, the stupid computer just started randomly shutting off, in the middle of writing a final paper. I was quite livid and phoned apple-care to see what they could do. They ran about an hour of tests over the phone/internet and said the problem was fixed. But the next day, same thing, it shut-off again. So I phoned apple again and they told me to take it to a service center. They promised that it would be covered under warranty, but when I went and picked the computer up, they asked for $60.00, apparently no software problems are covered by the warranty! So I paid the money, got home and about an hour later the dang thing shut-off again! I phoned the same apple guy that i had been talking to the whole time and he apologized and said how about we give you triple the amount you paid and send your computer in again to get fixed. So finally January 29 our computer is fixed and apple has bought us a new ipod stereo thing for the APPLE ipod I got for Christmas that just randomly shut-off the other day!! No joke, but this time I blame it on the -50,000°C weather. Oh and also, our awesome “APPLE Wireless Mighty Mouse” won’t scroll up, the friggin scroller button is busted. I have a love-hate relationship with Apple I think. but mainly I hate them.

I just hate them.
Period.
But I don’t love Sony much these days either.
