Apparently something shorted out on it last night, and it started smoking from the fan.
Its been shipped off for repair and is going to cost me 80$ just to have it looked at. Insane.
Also,my warranty expired FOUR DAYS AGO.
Rediculous.
Without a cellphone, I usually use my computer to make casual contact with friends and tomake plans. So thats a bit complicated.
But nowhere near as bad as the work that I've lost.
I know what you'rethinking, "Well Sean, you should have backed up your stuff."
I did...on to my external, which is in for repairs as well. I was told data recovery on my external was "doubtful" as well.
I feel like I should be in a series of unfortunate events.
And its looking like I'm going to have to sell my Wintersleep and Feist tickets so I can afford repairs on a new computer. I was talking to Corby last night about how my computer was making a funny noise,and how I'dget it looked after later. I'm guessing those are connected...
Anyways. I'll probably be out of contact for a while. The podcasts will basically be shut down for a few weeks. Sorry, I just had to rant.
And if this can't be fixed and I have to get a new computer (or the repair costs are so rediculous that I should just get a new one)... I will buckle down and relearn how to use a computer. Thats right,I'm gonna go MAC.
A year and a half old.
What a piece ofshit.
And don't even bother trying to call Toshiba tech support.
I gave up after two hours of being on hold.
I'll shut up now.
FUCK!
