I love my Dell XPS m1330 laptop, but ever since I've had it it's had an intermittent problem in which the screen goes blank for no apparent reason. I tolerated it for a long time, but finally called Dell tech support a few weeks ago since my warranty ends in September and I want to make sure I get a hardware replacement if needed.
Well, naturally Dell did what they could to avoid the hardware replacement option, exhausting every software and firmware option they could think of, but finally I insisted that I get a hardware replacement since my warranty is almost expired.
What does this have to do with anything? Well, as I mentioned in my last post, I've been borrowing my girlfriend's MacBook for iPhone development, but what I didn't mention was that she's been borrowing my Dell in return (she's so sweet). Since I need to take my Dell in for service, I need to give her back the MacBook for now. It's a blessing in disguise because it gives me the opportunity to plug away on the XNA Game Studio version of our game, which I can develop much more rapidly. Now I just have to send Dave a new request for art assets.
Oh, and I should have the Dell fixed by Tuesday, so I should have the MacBook back either that day or the next.
