I've noted problems with my Mac before (such as http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/1508 ) but, as coincidence would have it, yesterday I went to charge it up to take to a meeting--and the wretched thing won't charge. Power information tells me the battery has only had 47 cycles, and is "Normal"ly healthy, but it won't charge. (Was Charlie Miller right? Do I have a new and unknown Mac battery virus?) When something does go wrong with an Apple machine, there seems to be no way to make it right. ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Oh, great reviews are the worst. They mislead you more than the bad ones, because they only fuel your ego. Then you only want another one, like potato chips or something, and the best thing you get is fat and bloated. - Chazz Palminteri victoria.tc.ca/techrev/rms.htm http://www.infosecbc.org/links http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/ http://twitter.com/rslade _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
