I’m sad tonight.  My (work) Macbook died.  I’ve had it for all of about 2 months, decided that as my iTunes database was getting pretty big (8gb) I would back it up.
Went through the backup process and about half way through writing to the first DVD it all froze up.  Did a hard reboot and now it won’t boot up & the disk is making some funny noises.
A bit of googling leads me to believe that it’s a HDD crash and that I have not got much chance of seeing my data again, and that I could be without my laptop for a few weeks, which would suck.
It’s a sad day - ever since getting the macbook I’ve been configuring it, buying some great software and generally enjoying being on a mac again.
I’m off to cry myself to sleep
