So, I checked into my Hotel in Banff, eagerly looking forward to seeing today's photos on the Macbook Pro.
I turned it on, heard the welcome 'chime' and then... Nothing. A blank black screen - no illuminated Apple logo, nothing.
I tried again, and again...
Removed the battery - nothing.
I am so glad I didn't delete the images from my CF Cards... Always best to keep copies.
I do have the iPad and camera connection kit, so I can back images up to that, but don't think I have enough space to store all of the RAW images I am taking.
It also makes Blogging a little more difficult, but still totally 'do-able' using Blogpost on the iPad... If a lot slower than composing with Mars Edit on the Macbook Pro.
The biggest issue is that I bought the Macbook Pro with me for iChat: Video calling the girls.
Looks like a voice only Skype solution will have to do - Makes being away from them that bit tougher though.
I will take the poorly Macbook Pro to Apple when I get to Vancouver, but that isn't until mid next week; And I am not sure there is much they can do anyway.
Updates may be a little more sporadic than planned!
