Does Dead Technology Go To Heaven?

24 Jan

I have to tell you about my dying laptop. It’s grey and very old. In its youth it was a real champ. Then about a year ago it started to disambiguate. First its performance became a little weary. Freezing up and having to restart became a daily event. Then the plastic pieces on the exterior came off like a child loosing its baby teeth. Except no “adult teeth” grew back. The clasp to open the laptop became loose and eventually no longer held closed. It would flap around like a walrus clapping its fins, “ARF, ARF”. The poor hinges are the worst and the reason a new laptop is on order. Opening and closing for the past few years has made a popping noise. The screen sort of lost its will to hold itself up. At that point I diagnosed it with a broken neck. Then a screw fell out and a metal piece in tow. The screen completely detached itself from the bottom part of the laptop. I’m really sad to see such a trust machine go, but alas it’s time. How many more days until my new laptop arrives? Have you ever encountered a faulty computer or laptop?

XOXO,

Rizzle
