The last time this happened near the beginning of the year, I paid out of pocket to increase my work machines warranty to the full coverage to get it repaired/replaced. That way the company doesn't have to waste money on a whole new machine. That warranty is still in place.

IT is now causing my boss headaches, as they understandably think I'm careless with an expensive machine. I get the feeling, but accidents happens I even have an easy fix for them, but might wind up with a Windows instead :/
