Hard Time

I was sitting at my desk, toiling away on a web site with music playing on my G4 laptop to my left and heard a rather strange tune. It was much like a mistracked scratch or strange drum line but with an air of "uh-oh" about it. I quickly muted the speakers and the sound continued.

Ah, I recognize that sound. I haven't heard it for quite some time, thankfully. It was the horrific sound of the heads on the hard drive physically crashing. A reboot confirmed that I was now the proud owner of an aluminum doorstop. Fortunately, I have the AppleCare Protection Program, so now I get to see how well they take care of their customers. Oh boy! :P
