Laptop issues
Re: Laptop issues
I have a Mozy subscription, so I'm not that worried about losing data, it's just annoying to have my computer so slow and prone to overheating and potentially about to die.
Re: Laptop issues
I'd say you're better off shopping for a new one than trying to repair an old one, personally. Depending on what the fix is, it could cost anywhere from half as much to twice as much as a newer, more capable laptop.

Yeah, that's probably true. Money's a bit tricky right now, though, so I don't want to buy a new laptop if there's a chance this one can be fixed for less. (And in terms of speed, memory, etc., this one is more than adequate for my needs, so I don't have a particular motivation to upgrade. Aside from the whole overheating issue. )

Re: Laptop issues
So, if and when my laptop dies, is it worth it to subscribe to Apple's cloud service? Or will I be able to set up my iTunes podcasts and music again just from my backup files?
