After years of defending Apple products, my 6 month old MacBook has decided to take a dump on me. Take that last part any way you please... Anything for humor. Anyways, the battery would no longer charge. The status light on the magna plug no longer gave any indication either. No more amber or green colors for me to let me know what the hell was going on! I tried resetting the "PMU" as well as some other tricks, but nothing worked.

In the end, the Genius at the Genius Bar took a shot and got no further than I did. Locked up the MacBook on a 3-5 day sentence. Hopefully when I get it back I can continue to boast about the quality of Apple gear. Honestly, it would take a lot to get me to give up OS X and go back to a FreeBSD workstation.
