Laptop and 4-Runner follow up

I took the 4-Runner over this morning to the dealership. After about 5 hours they called me back to tell me that they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Murphy's law strikes again. So moving on to the laptop. I decided to take a look at the screen myself. Looks like the circuit board embedded on the monitor burned out. After looking around on the internet, a replacement screen runs around 500.00 or so. After thinking it through, it just doesnt seem worth it to replace the screen on a laptop thats going out anyhow. So in the meantime....check out the picture to the right...

The 4-Runner goes to the shop

So i was driving along the other day and noticed the street was all icy. So i pushed the button for 4-Hi on the dashboard. What comes next was a series of god awful grinding noises and clanks. So i pull over (i was going 25 mph) and turn off the 4 wheel drive. I then re-engage the button and start the vehicle again only to the sound of the grinding loud popping noise. Seems the 4 wheel drive went out on my 1 year old Toyota 4-Runner. A bit disappointing considering there are only 14000 miles on it and i've never even taken it in the dirt!!! So, now I wait to find out the damage....
