Death of a Mac

Logic board failure.

Suddenly, with no warning, the G5 has died. I really loved that Mac and now it is just parts, waiting to be disposed of. It will be replaced by a used MacBook from eBay. Not the same, but a very usable tool.

I got a MacBook for my daughter last year and am very impressed by it, so I don't think the transition will be too painful. She is graciously letting me use it for essentials, but it isn't reasonable to load on all my music software.

Of course, it means that there will be a suspension of the revision for a few weeks. It also means a change in the work habits and flow. I don't think QuickTime Pro 6.5 will work on the Intel system, so I may have to switch to GarageBand to make instrument choices for my files. This will entail a learning curve. I hope to have everything back up and running by the end of July.
