So, I took my computer in last night to the two early-twenties guys standing behind the counter at the local Mac store.. The first guy asked me what the problem was and I told him that the temperature on my dashboard was saying that something in my computer was floating around eighty degrees Celsius.
“That’s not good”, he said.
Then he looked at me disapprovingly and asked if I had done my software updates.
“Yep”, I assured him.
“Hmmm, are you sure?”, he said opening my laptop and clicking in the Apple icon in the top left corner.
“Yep”
About ten minutes later a window popped up on my screen saying that I had, in fact, updated my computer and there were “no new updates”.
“That’s weird”, said the guy behind the counter.
“Not really”, I thought.
So now my computer has been left behind the counter for three to five days. They are going to look at it, open it up, play with things, and most likely run any updates that need to be run.
Thank you Mac people. And thank you Kristin for treating your computer better than I treat mine, so I can use it for three to five days.
