So for the third time since getting my new 15" MacBook Pro I have
sent the damn thing off for repair. Again I had a failed HDD, and
again I lost data. I take backups, but I'm not religous about it. I
mean, who would think that a new HDD would die within 3 weeks?
Sigh

So I'm using KDE+FreeBSD for my desktop while I wait for the god awfully slow Apple service to come and fix my laptop.
So why do I have all these failures with that MBP? I suspect that it maybe a heat issue or bad grounding. At home we pile our MacBooks on top of each other like a little naughty horizontal Apple dance. Since my MBP loves to absorb heat maybe running Mariko's on top just produced too much heat and zapped it. I don't know if this has been the cause for all 3 HDD failures, but I think it is for at least this one.
