Mac Missing in Action

Why is it things always take longer than they should? I brought my Mac in for servicing two weeks ago now. At the time, I was told it would be 2 or 3 days before I got it back. Well, that didn’t work out too well.

Next, they told me they had to order a new logic board, and it was going to take 2 or 3 days to get that in. So, I should have my Mac back after about a week in total. Fine. I can handle that. Well, that didn’t work out too well either.

I called the service center about this and I could hardly understand the guy with his accent and the poor call quality. But, what I did get from the conversation was that my part didn’t arrive when it should have. This means that I have live without my Mac through the long weekend.

This has been extremely frustrating for me because I have to use my Toshiba laptop all the time, and I’m not used to it any more…and it has Windows on it. Also, I have no way of syncing my iPod. I’m completely caught up on all the podcasts I have, and I’ve downloaded new music that I can’t listen to yet.

I guess all I can do is hope it’s ready on Tuesday when I go back to work.
