So I got home last night and was all ready to get my new music setup up and running. I made my way upstairs and sat in front of Kerri's MacBook. Opened it up and saw a white line going across the whole screen, horizontally. I think hmmm, that's weird, I'll reboot, that always seems to fix shit.
Reboot.
Immediately on the loading screen the white line still lives. Oh shit....
My gradually shrinking knowledge of computers still tells me that this is bad. For this line to be there even when booting means something is seriously messed up with the MacBook's screen. Probably the most expensive part of the whole beast.
I do some searching and my assumptions are confirmed with postings of similar problems and no solutions other than replacing the LCD ($700?) or replacing the whole unit ($1600). Everything else is working fine, it's just this white line. So not a huge problem for the average Joe however when it comes time to do some photography work this little white line will be constantly taunting me. External monitor may be the way to go.
Oh shit....
The plus side is the Airport Express works like a charm :)
