Back to my Mac

Went to the Apple store exactly two weeks ago to have my MacBook fixed. I had a little crack in the topcase (again, third time) and as I was 1 month out of warranty I was hoping to be lucky. Amazingly the Apple Geek was ok with the repair, and even wanted to replace the bottom-case too, which had a very small crack.

As an extra he told me to have a look at my battery, that recently had dropped to a capacity of 59%. After 1.5 week of phoning the Apple Store and complaining about the time it took for them to take care of this “high priority” repair, I was happy to see that they finally managed to repair the topcase, bottom-case, battery and fan on the Sunday before I left for The Netherlands.

Pretty cool how they even decided to replace my battery outside of the warranty. Kudos for Apple again, but please, next time do my repair a bit faster.

Going to BarCamp Brighton

Yeah! I managed to get 2 tickets for BarCamp Brighton today. One for Melinda and one for me. I was 13 minutes late and suddenly realized that they opened the give-away, but I was just in time. A few minutes later all tickets were sold out. Looking forward to see Reinier and Alper at the BarCamp.
