I'm not going to be as harsh as new_newton, but here's my take on this and I think I'll work backwards since that makes the most sense to me. Applecare covers defects related to t…

Newton, He said it was a freeking accident.. Yes he's whining about it, and rightly so. The apple guy said come back after the holidays, which he did. SOME people lead very busy li…

Thanks to all of the users who have been understanding. I dont think I made it very clear; I am away at college and I can't just drive to an apple store. Has anyone in these forum…

There's a reason why most PB repairs are handled via mail-in. Takes about a week. Things aren't any faster at an Apple Store. At any rate, your dropping the PB and denting it (alo…

I find it a little ridiculous to assume that a dent caused any certain problem. They should have to prove to you that the dent caused the problem before they summarily dismiss you…

here's what you should do: Call apple explain the situation again and if they give you the same response... bitch... ask to speak to their supervisor and keep going on and on abou…

Does this mean that the presence of a dent voids any possible repairs through Applecare? I have a small hardly noticeable dent that was the result of some keys dropping on my noteb…

It's common practice -- not just Apple, but many manufacturers. They jump up and down in the warranty terms about what is and is not covered for a reason. It's not an "excuse" of…

"but you can't reasonably expect a company like Apple to believe that one problem on a poorly-cared for laptop is their fault as opposed to yours. If you can get the appropriate do…

by the way... a friend of mine's powerbook hard drive died within the first 6mo... she sent it into apple for repair under applecare, but it was taking forever. When her dad calle…

Next time, buy Safeware insurance. . .

Forget about the court. Are you a lawyer, or just listening to the ones that live in the dorm? You have no case here. You originally went in for the hinge. You come back, but no…

I'm not expecting apple to fix my dent, or any damage I may have caused. I just want them to fix their manufacturing faults because I paid $2k+ for a notebook with a functioning hi…

Hey all, I finally decided to join the forums here. Long time Apple user that has been reading around here alot since MacWorld this year. Anyway, having previously worked for a s…

dissappointed: I don't feel that what my brother did was necessarily the right thing to do, but it worked. Personally I think neglecting to tell Apple the whole truth is better tha…
