A few minutes ago the power supply of my started to burn. Literally. Pretty scary, too.

So now I’ll have to look for a new power supply and it has to be fast. I’m backing up my data to the network so I will at least have access to that after my notebook’s battery is empty.

I do hope that MacTienda or one of the other Apple service centers here has a 12" PowerBook power supply on stock.

Update: I phoned the company IT Service in Miraflores, Lima. They apparently have one power supply on stock and I’ll go and get it this afternoon. I hope it’s the right one, but I’m pretty positive about it.

Update 2: They did have the right part in stock and I bought it. They explained me that Apple requires official Apple Service Providers to have such parts in stock. I probably could have required them to give me the part for free as I still have an Apple guarantee until ca. August this year. But for one half I forgot about it and for the other half I was just so glad to have a new part that I didn’t mind paying a bit for it.
