The CRASH / The CRASH!

"Be careful when climbing stairs."






Victim:
Mokeke of Hokkaido

Scene of Accident:
Stairs in my house

Broken Item:
Apple Computer iPod U2 Special Edition

Details of Accident:
Late at night, while going back to my room in my house, I was listening to music o­n my iPod. I slipped o­n the stairs, and the iPod went tumbling down. Since I've dropped it plenty of times, I just blew if off like nothing happened. But when I looked, the damn screen was broken.

More from the Contributor:
It was good to see that the hard drive was fine, but I'm a bit worried about how much it will cost to repair the LCD. I have AppleCare, so I don't really thing it will be that much. A buddy of mine said it would be about 5,000 to 10,000 yen. Since that is cheaper than the unit itself, I'll shutup and just pay for it. Be careful when climbing stairs.
