It ain't ticking anymore, you slept through that alarm. My laptop has a SSD and no spinning platters.

MacBook Air has no moving parts that I’m aware of. Unless you count the hinge of the screen. Well, there might be a fan. But no spinning HDD.

You've been asleep... Solid State Hard Drives have been available for a couple of years. I've got one running on my Frankenstein computer right now.

I think your time would be better spent yelling at the neighborhood kids for walking on the grass.
