Everyone has had their ups and downs on their Macs. So describe your tales of your worst times in your life in relation to Macs.

My most recent worst time was when I was working on the animation avatar (the last one before the 3D versions) and I kept making all these mistakes, with Photoshop/ImageReady layers and other things. The first attempt took me about 30 minutes or so, before I realized I had to start over. I tried again a second time, and I had to start over after another 20 or 30 minutes. The third time was going smoothly, with a few minor mistakes. Then, all of a sudden, the electricity in the entire in the house goes off for a whole ƒ!!king 7 hours! To make matters worse, the entire house started to cook because of the summer heat. I mean, the only room that was below 80ºF (about 27ºC or so) was the basement.

Anyways, after we got back power I made my avatar for the 4th time and it worked. This, BTW, was on June 28 or 29.

When Apple screwed up fixing my TiBook under warranty..... it went in November, they avoided speaking to me for a couple months, and I got it back in Jan....... I had to get UK trading standards involved, and came very, very close to getting my Solicitor to kick their a*se...... :eek: :mad: :mad:

And Apple would have lost........

My worst times would be my last few months with my Beige G3 Tower. It was acting up REALLY bad... and so now I have this G4 iMac... and all's well.
