while I was traveling - never again.
Thank god it's 100% impossible for a Mac to die on someone while they
are traveling! Apple should do more to advertise that fact.

Just going on about my experience.
The problem I had was solved after reformatting. So I know it was not a
hardware issue, but an OS fault.
Have you ever had to explain to a sales rep of VP why his year old Dell
is completely toasted? Its not fun. Luckily I'm generally able to
make up some sort of excuse.

I'm sure I could have solved the Dell problems WITHOUT "reformatting". Any time I read that someone had to do that to solve a problem I laugh.
