Days ago, before coming to Taiwan I had cleaned my Mac book Air’s screen off with an alcohol pad, and it immediately broke. I didn’t know it then of course, but the alcohol had seeped into the screen and broken the seal on the electronics for the backlight, ruining the entire panel (according to Dr. Fix in Taipei) that is, I thought hey, I’m in Asia, where all these things are made, it must be cheap to fix right? Wrong. It was $411.00 US and that’s half what I paid for the thing. Even so, it’s what I use to write, and so I need it. I had left the pc with Dr. Fix and days later they left me an email to pick it up.
