I have blisters. On my heels. D:

Got my Macbook back from repairs, but the hissing is still present. D: I haven't even had this computer for a year and already it has a replaced hard drive, logic board, and as of today, a new fan (franken-rodney! -- what's left to replace? the optical drive? memory?). The logic board replacement resolved the issue for a few months, but a few weeks ago, the sound came back. Ugh, idek. I'm really sensitive to noise, so the sound gives me a headache, but not a lot of people (including most of the tech people, it seems) can hear it because it's so high-pitched. *tears hair out*

And I just noticed that I have somehow procured a program called Growl without being aware of downloading it... odd. That would explain why I get a notification pop-up every time a download completes.

D: I can't believe you've had so much work done on this already! I've had mine for much longer and it's been okay. Though I did get the Mac equivalent of the blue screen of death once, it was terrifying! Maybe your ears are just really super and you're picking up lower/higher frequencies... /making things up /o\

(Also, have you seen the podfic recording someone did of the first few chapters of The Administration? I keep listening to it, and that always makes me want to reread. It's an endless cycle of hotness, let me tell you.)

Wow. I have never had problems with my PCs and to hear that you've had so much issue with your Macbook....

What happened to your heels...?

Ugh, I'm sorry about the Macbook! D: That's terrible, especially if it seems only you can hear it! Though I adore franken-rodney XD

Huh. Growl. Interesting.

do you have a protection plan? i'd take full advantage of that if i were you and not hesitate to take it back to have it fixed again. i mean, that's what you pay extra for.

i'm going to buy a macbook pro once they come out (loooong overdue for updates). i hope i don't have any issues for a while. my pc is bad, and this is the understatement of the year. :(

Actually...I remember being asked if I wanted to install Growl either when I installed last.fm or at some point, while I was using Firefox...So yeah...
