Do you remember the good old days when even if you did manage to get a crappy
control strip, it was still your crappy control strip.
When i first got my computer, and i was completely computer illiterate, instead of
today's pseudo-illiterate, the control strip came bundled with my computer.
It didn't do anything particularly amazing or anything, but it did almost let me know
when my battery was running low. And it did slow down my cpu...not to a crunching
halt, but a haltering stagger.
If anyone has a copy of this said redundent piece of low-tech, can they please send it to
me because Apple it would seem is being too stingy in not replacing it for me.
Thanks,
Gary
