As I pulled the RAM and Airport card out of my iBook and erased its hard drive yesterday, I was feeling a little sad. Despite all the trouble caused by my little friend, he was still a very handy tool throughout the past two years, and I’d grown attached. He stuck with me through thick and thin for some of my more interesting adventures and arduous tasks to date: Gillam, Toronto, Tech Comm and UMES Promos and Engenda, as well as huge reports in Digital Logic and µP Interfacing, major programming projects, and countless assignments and other such things.

We’d been through a lot together, but when he failed for the fourth time, enough was enough. Soon he’ll be back where he came from — hopefully a better place. And I’ll have to learn to love an aluminum ‘book instead.

So long, my shiny white friend.
