I did an article for Don McAllister’s ScreenCasts Online Magazine for iPad this month on how fun it is to tear hardware apart and how I regret all the years I was afraid of it. Not a power house by any means but sure seemed to be worth trying to save. The model is a mid-2012 MacBook Air, 120GB SSD and 4GB of RAM. I begged her to let me take a look at it and see what I could do. Naila took it over to Apple, and they told her it would cost more to repair than it was worth so she bought a new machine and moved on with her life.
The good news is the little girl only knocked a water glass over into Naila’s MacBook Air. As many of us know, small children and laptops can be a terrible combination if there’s any liquid nearby. My neighbor Naila across the street has an adorable baby girl.
