it’s damn hot

July 22, 2006

My powerbook gets pretty hot these triple digit days, and a few days ago the battery died. Or so it seemed. (Heat alone does not make batteries die however.) One of my sons knows a fellow who works at one of the Apple stores, who advised him to zap the pram. It worked, except the little lights on the bottom of the laptop don’t work. I’ll look that up later.

For now, it seems that SF is hotter than the peninsula. Wow. That’s a switch. 95° there, 93° here, but it feels like 100° minimum.

For those who missed it earlier, here’s the egg frying on the back of a Mac laptop. Of course it’s a joke , but these things do get really, really hot.
