I let Hardy throw a party under the table , thinking he was playing with a piece of paper (he was at first). When I came back, he was scratching  the unplugged wire. I think he may have destroyed it and they dont manufacture it anymore. (Old apple computer).

Oh well, it is a bummer. But I will figure out something or live without a computer for a little while. It is only inconvenience and samsara after all though it would be a big bummer.
