Going to a different college. As for the lazy part I can understand that, I don't want to clean right now.

you told me something about machines with souls... I'm interested in knowing more.

It's a simple little philosophy of mine. All machines have souls, and as a result all machines act differently. If you do something that a particular machine doesn't like it will retaliate (for instance, every time I try to install linux, this machine will reject linux shortly after a successful install and something goes missing from my windows partition). However if you do something the machine likes it will generally be more cooperative with things it doesn't like (my van for some odd reason runs a lot quieter and a lot smoother after cleaning all of the fast food wrappers out of it.)

I've experienced enough weird things occur because of something you wouldn't think could make a difference. I've seen my boss do the exact same thing I just tried 3 or 4 times already to fix a problem, and be successful on the first attempt, simply because the machine hates me. You may already have noticed this if you've ever worked on somebody else' computer. It may have the same operating system and be laid out the same way, but it will feel and operate like a totally different machine than yours.

hey man, how can I check an HFS drive's integrity (preferrably live). I've been experiencing crashes and kernel panics recently, and it might be the hard drive magically being unclean.

First the drive's mechanical operation. Open up the disk utility, select the drive and hit cmd+i. This will give you the SMART info.

if the drive is just unclean, you can also wipe the free space using the disk utility. I think it's under the partitions tab (it's been a while since i've used a mac.)

I don't know about file integrity, but if you have another drive to move it to, you can rewrite the info to that drive, zero out the installed drive, and reinstall the information. I do this with my terrabyte drives every now and then.

Hope this get's ya somewhere, when it comes to the operation of the mac OS i'm totally lost in many respects. Maybe there is a chkdsk command for it.
