Thanks for the hug. :) I knew it would happen sooner or later since the laptop is already six years old. I'm glad it happened before finals time at least. I just purchased a laptop online, so hopefully it'll be here by the end of next weekend. By the end of September at the worst, but I'd want my money back if that's the case. :p

Always good to back stuff up on your computer - you never know when it'll really crash on you to the point that you can't access anything. Technology is fickle that way. :-(
