paultagit's such a sexy machine15:40
dzhoI wish Lenovo dealt better with orgs like $EMPLOYER15:41
dzhobut apparently they won't even give you the time of day unless you tend to order more than $FIXNUM systems at a time15:41
dzhoand, we don't15:41

_bbbyeah you can always find off lease15:42
paultagI'm going to have to send my machine back to get it fixed15:43

snap-lheh15:43
paultagI wonder if I can get MIT to fix it.15:43
snap-lpaultag: On-site repair. ;)15:43
paultagit's a blown USB bus, snap-l :)15:43
paultagI don't think they can on-site that15:43
snap-lI think jcastro got Dell to do an onsite repair15:43
snap-lYeah, just bring a new mobo15:44
paultagoh, no shit.15:44
snap-lpop pop and you're don15:44
paultagthat would rock.15:44
snap-ldone15:44
snap-lIt may be extra $$ for the tech visit, but if you don't want to wait, it may be worth it15:44
snap-land I don't know how Lenovo handles on-site, or if they even offer it15:44
snap-lbut yeah, fixing the USB == replacing the mobo15:45
paultagI'll walk down the road to MIT and see if their IT folks can fix it15:45
snap-lnobody does onsite diagnostic like replacing reistors and stuff, it's usually a mobo swap15:45
paultagwell, it was 120v through the bus15:45
paultagso, perhaps a transistor or two15:46
snap-lAgain, nobody does onsite diagnostic like replacing reistors and stuff, it's usually a mobo swap15:46
snap-l;)15:46
snap-lDOn't make me use history keys again. ;)15:46
