So last night I became a member of The Club.

To be in the club you have to have a macbook with a crack in its casing but still like your mac and not want to get a new computer. I asked Dr Google which glue I should use to fix the problem and came across this flickr group.

In the group there is a picture matching my defect perfectly:

I discovered that Apple has been replacing the panel on all these CrackBooks. So I thought I would just do some first aid until I go to the repair place. Couldn't find the sticky tape but the first aid box yielded some Steri*-Strips...

first aid

I think it looks quite good. I am fairly sure I could get the edges to appose even better but I can't be bothered.

What? Ethics essay due tomorrow? Don't know what you're talking about! There is no relationship between ethics essay due-ness and blogging frequency!

* Astute readers may notice that the "Steri" part of Steri-Strips is somewhat lacking. For repairing computers, it is ok to use NonSteri-Strips that have been sitting in the cupboard in an open packet for a few years...
