Top 1 Thing To Keep Your Toddler Away From

Your laptop computer.

This is a picture of my Macbook after my 2.5 year old son got his hands on it:

This is where I start weeping bitterly

As you can see, he managed to remove roughly two-thirds of the keys on the keyboard. I wasn’t happy :)

But, thanks to my new friend Gab at the Irvine Spectrum Apple Store, all of my keys are now in perfect working order (including the broken ones, which he replaced gratis):

Apple genius fixing my keyboard

So, all is well (though, I was without computer for a couple of days, hence the drop off in posting here). Expect more new content in the next couple of days, hopefully tomorrow!

And a great big massive thanks to Gab for hooking me up with a couple of (very small, inexpensive) parts to get me out the door with a working laptop and a wallet that weighed the same as when I arrived :)

    Hmm, annoying indeed. Although, it seems kind of superfluous worrying about your laptop over your son who I only hope came out of it unharmed.

    I am sure that if any harm had come to his son from this, his first response would be worry for his child.

    Goes with the territory. I have to worry about a cat that initiates shutdown; changes file names; sends emails, and deletes important files....

    My son has done this to several laptops, including my Sisters when she visiting.

    I saw red for sure..

    I can sympathize with you. It's awesome that Apple fixed you up, I have spend upwards of 85.00 to buy a new keyboard for my Sisters iBook when the keys got peeled.

    The space bar is impossible to put back on FYI. :)
