Any of you who have been following my blog for a while, probably remember the issues I had with my Failing ThinkPad about a week back. Well IBM’s support center called me today to inform me that the necessary parts have arrived and they can proceed with the repairs. I jumped with joy and I thought it would be a simple exercise for the technician to complete the repairs. But in life, nothing is simple.

I carefully packed up the notebook this morning, snuck out of the office and rushed over to them. I even bought some snacks and a book to pass the time while I wait for the repairs to be completed. Apparently it’s not so simple, while the parts are there, they still need to assign a technician to the job. So what I was expecting to be a 2-hour job is going to take about 3 days.

I am going to be without a computer for the next 3 days, so my posting consistency may suffer. Quite ironic after yesterdays post on reasons why blogs fail. I will try to maintain a daily post schedule, but it will be made from my office PC, and my boss watches me like a hawk in the office.
