Please enlighten me, since you seem so intelligent. Besides I do not stoop to name calling to belittle people so since you;ve just done that to me, why not at least explain yourse…

There is no "Highest" setting on the MacBook.

The warrenty, as it is written, does indeed support Darth's interpretation. Lawyers don't use words for kicks. Every word they use has meaning. The "damage caused by..." bit is the…
