[QUOTE="EFS, post: 950600, member: 116131"] Ok, now this may be due to the fact that the people at my local Apple store AND Best Buy are idiots, but here comes my never-buy-stuff-at-best-buy-story. When I purchased my White MacBook back in February of 08, the spec'ed up models were released about a week later (I didn't know when the right time to buy was). So when I tried to take it back to Best Buy to get the spec'ed up model, they told me that there was nothing they could do, even though the machine was barely used and the newer model was the same exact price. When I called my local Apple Store, I was glad to hear that they would exchange it, that was, until I told them that it was purchased at Best Buy. To this day, my Apple Care is still valid, but when things like that Happen, your screwed! Just a word of advice, even though the spec'ed up models just came out and the new ones won't be here until Feb. [/QUOTE]
