I am very proud that our Daddy belongs to US!
We've had the problem with the computer before, but it was still under warranty so it wasn't as big of a deal. This time we learned that this is something that goes wrong with our model about every year and a half. Yay. Luckily Daddy's a smart guy and he checked some message boards online to see if other people have had the problem. They have, and they gave basic directions on how to fix it. The only problem is you could screw up a bunch of other stuff attempting to fix this one thing. Great. We took it to the official computer store and they wanted $600 to replace the entire section of the computer! Yikes. So Dad took the kids on a field trip to a specialty computer store and they wanted 7-10 days to diagnose the problem. We already know the problem. Back home they all came. And our AWESOME Dad took the computer apart and fixed the problem himself! Even with fairly unclear directions. I love that guy.
