In article , dump-on- says... About three years ago, I sold my very decent IBM Thinkpad, made the plunge, and bought an Apple MacBook Pro. Never had any problems with it.. Today, I was using it and the screen started flashing a little. Weird. So I called Apple. I'm out of warranty, but...there was an issue with the video cards on these machines, so Apple extended service for that item to four years. So I'm covered. The tech made an appointment for me at the Apple store. I'm not sure what the repair is, but "it will be fixed," I was assured, and at no cost to me. Interestingly, this laptop cost me less than the Thinkpad I had. I had that machine for about five years, I think, before I sold it. Boating related, because I run chart plotting software on the Macbook Pro. When are you going? I'd like to meet you there! Maybe Harry will be in Beddington Maine... on Dec 14 & 15th. Why don't you come on up & find out? |

These included his providing via email complete verifiable identification, no "negotiating," time and place set up via email, no discussion of details in newsgroup, et cetera. No ticket, no laundry, no matter what he ejaculates here. -- http://flickr.com/gp/hakr/8272ug |

I don't dislike windows and PC's, I simply prefer mac hardware and software. And I run windows under an emulator that runs on macs. But no one expects you mooks to get anything correct. -- http://flickr.com/gp/hakr/8272ug |
