I've never understood how people manage to mess up cases so badly - especially other (supposedly) technical people. I have never replaced a computer because of physical failure. --Even my first laptop, which lasted me 5 years, was replaced because I was moving overseas and didn't want to have to worry about paying higher prices for a laptop in the UK.
- dagw 15y agoPeople expect different things from their hardware. Some people are super careful with their kit. Always keep it in a special case when not using it, always transport it in a padded bag, always put it down very carefully, never but anything on top of it etc. Others simply chuck their phone or laptop unprotected into whatever bag they happen to have handy and set off. Personally I'm very much in the second camp. I expect my hardware to keep up with me, not to change my habits to accommodate my hardware.
- specialist 15y agoMy laptops go EVERYWHERE with me. I really beat the shit of out them. Despite the case and padded backpack. The right side sagged from where my wrist rests, a problem eliminated by the unibody. I put my thumb through the LCD, replaced it, and not being very handy, the case lost its factory fresh fit and finish.
