I recently bought a refurbished MacBook Pro as a upgrade to my old MacBook Pro I bought in 2005 and sold to my brother.  Ever since I gotten this machine I've been having problems with it and I'm pretty fed up.  I wish I could just walk into the Apple store and get it fixed, but since the closes store is thousands of miles away, I can't.  I guess I'm just going to have to tough if out and wait a few more months till I go home.  Let see if I can't make it without throwing this thing out the window!  

Today I had a job interview that I applied for a few weeks ago.  At the time I really wanted the position, but now I kinda changed my mind and no longer want the job.  So today I walked into the interview like Peter Gibbons from Office Space, totally relaxed and carefree.  I didn't want the job anymore so I didn't care, but.... I was so relaxed that I think I answered every question perfectly; I even had the room laughing at one point.  I'm afraid that I might have gotten the job.  

If you keep getting the "beach ball", try doing a clean install of your OS, along with all latest Mac software updates It sometimes cures the problem. Good luck with the job.

macs are great machines if you know how to use them.

1. check yr ram status it may be damaged

2 reinstall your os... i think its free.

3. delete all the illegal software hahah

had macs for the past 3 years w out any bs... thats what they are known for.
