Another tough-as-nails Mac
Last week, Scott wrote about a poor Powerbook that had been badly damaged, but continued to work. Oddly enough, I found the

introduced it to the floor, badly cracking the case around the display. The good news: it still works. You've got to
love these tough-as-nails Macs.
