When Technology Dies

So...Robbie's computer died. More specifically, his logic board is on the fritz. That's this thing:

We're debating whether to pay to replace it, or upgrade to a new machine. Since Robbie will likely be traveling a fair amount for auditions and such, he could greatly benefit from something more portable than a 15" MacBook Pro. We've got our eye on this guy (the 11" model on the left):

Robbie is quite thrilled with the possibility of having a newer/faster/better computer than I do. And, while I'm slightly jealous of how thin and light his computer would be, I'm overjoyed by the prospect of him no longer borrowing mine. We'll keep you updated on what we decide to do!
