Today, when I wanted to check my emails, I noticed that my iBook doesn't show anything on the screen anymore. So I switched it off, and on again, and what I heard was not quite amusing: first, I heard the usual flourish, but right after that, also three beeps, and the computer stopped booting. Well, after some searching on Google, I found out that this seems to be RAM-related problem.
Well, I need to get that fixed ASAP so that I can continue my work on my project and paper for 21C3, but I don't know when since I'm in Salzburg during the week.
This also makes me think: after all, Apple hardware doesn't seem to be as robust as expected. After owning that iBook for 1 year and 8 months, I already had two big problems (the faulty logic board and this one now), and it's costing me time to get it running again. I'm already thinking about selling that iBook and moving back to a PC notebook, since I'm sure that more problems will arise after this one is sold.
