    I got my macbook air's keyboard replaced as part of their faulty butterfly keyboard problem. It was shipped back to me today and there is a DENT

    The dent is on the lower right screen part of the mac! What should I do? Is this covered by apple? I believe it happened during shipping. Which would be their fault for not packing it correctly, right? Or the repairman accidentally applied too much force but hoped I wouldn't notice. It seems...

    The Next-generation MacBooks should support Satellite Connectivity

    I don't think this is very likely, but I would love to see the MacBooks support Satellite Connectivity. It is a portable device, and if it's the only one on hand, Satellite Connectivity could prove to be useful.
