my soundcard on my powerbook is going insane. sometimes when i wake it from sleep it wont turn on. and recently, its started to sound like a skipping cd, now whenever i wake it from sleep it never turns on, it needs to be on for a while before the soundcard works again. then sometimes itll just fade and die. already tried talking to apple. i had no way to buy the apple care plan, so i dont have any more phone time. but i still have 8 mo. to send it back. but, theres a major problem w/ this: i cant afford to not have my comp while im at school, and theres no approved apple places within 30 min. from my school, and i have no car. anyone else have this problem? please help me.

return your powerbook, so it will be fixed as soon as possible and use computer labs or your friends computers till it gets back. if you get really desperate, go and buy the cheapest comp that will do the job in the mean time on your credit card, and then when the powerbook get back return it. there are places that have return policies where they will take anything back at any time, so look around. it's not worth letting your warranty run out just to avoid the hassle of school with no comp for two weeks or something.
