GAH! Why?

Posted on February 8, 2007 by Alexandre Gauthier

I just woke up, glanced tenderly at my Mac Book Pro next to my bed, and plugged the cord in. I pushed the button on the battery that is supposed to tell me in what condition the charge is. Nothing occured.

I power up the laptop, and see this.

GAH DEAD BATTERY X.X

For those not speaking french, it means “No battery available”.

Fuck. And I’m about to go on a trip to toronto. The battery of my older Powerbook died the same way in the very same outlet. What the fuck is wrong with this power outlet, I ask you? Damn.
