It is unfortunate that it happened now.  The timing sucks.

Ahh, I shouldn't respond... I really shouldn't.  Seriously, I tend to buy
my own way most places.  Unfortunately, this time lady luck decided to
abandon me at a rather inconvenient time.  My financial resources (yes, I
have a job) were busy fixing other things.  As such, my dead laptop will
basically mean that I would not have had access to a hacking laptop for
roughly 2-3 months.  This would be ok except for the fact that several of
us have been having mini hackathons on a weekly basis, and I'd like to
keep going to them (and being more productive than a pop/food server).
