So I have been using Macs for 4 years now and have never seen the kernal panic screen before until yesterday ("You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button until it turns off, then press the Power button again."). I did what it said and the computer restarted fine and I haven't had any issues, but I am going to Italy for a month in 5 days and absolutely can't afford for my computer to die on me while I'm over there. Even though nothing else has happened, I worry that this could be a precursor to some sort of breakdown with the hardware I have a 6 month old Macbook Pro, should I be worried?
