Is it wrong that I’m absolutely charmed and delighted to discover that my iBook battery may burst into flame at any moment?
I bought my computer second hand, and while it still totally rocks, the original battery is so old, it can barely sustain a strong enough charge to prevent data being lost while I move it from one room to another before plugging it in again.
I replaced the original battery with a generic battery about a month ago at my own expense, but the sanctity of the skin on my thighs seems like a small sacrifice to make in exchange for an additional 4 hours of brand-name cordless power, free of charge (no pun intended).
In other words, this is even cooler than the time I found that thumbtack in my salad.
If you think you might also be in posession of a ball-of-flame-powered iBook, you can look into exchanging your battery here. It takes about 3 minutes to complete the form, and then 4-6 steamy thigh barbequing weeks for the battery to arrive in the mail.

Thank goodness you are back. I was beginning to worry about the bloggers in my life. I hope you thighs stay in tact.
