[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 92836"] You are aware that there is Federal and in some cases State law covering this? Specifically the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Lemon laws in most states cover only vehicles, but there are exceptions. Of particular interest in your case is 15 U.S.C. 2304(a)(4). It runs the risk of pissing Apple off but the reality is that there are laws specifically written to protect the consumer from the need for an unreasonable number of repairs upon an item. For the original poster I think you effectively got shafted b someone selling a PB where they knew it was bad so they pawned it off before the warranty ended so that someone else could deal with it. See if you can get a repair history on the laptop from Apple. [/QUOTE]
