Wow, this is truly the reason I buy Apple.
So I went to my local store to buy a copy of Final Cut, later to find out the edu. discount doesn't apply in-store. Not that big of a deal, so while I'm there I get my MacBook (purchased the day it came out) checked about these random shut downs I'm having.
The genius tells me it's the Logic Board, and it'll need replaced. Bummer! Once she's finished, I thought I'd ask her if there was anyway I could get the printer deal, since I had no idea it was going on at the time I purchased my computer. She told me to go speak with the asst. manager.
Ok so on to the asst. manager! I ask him about the deal since I wasn't informed about it at the time of purchase, and he said we're gonna make it happen! He tells me to go pick out a printer. I'm so pumped right now. I come back with the printer and casually ask him that since I'm getting the printer, do I qualify for the free iPod as well. At first he told me he couldn't do that, but like 10 mins later he tells me to go pick out an iPod!!
Ok so here's the best part. I'm talking to another guy there, who wasn't dressed like any of the other employees, I'm thinking he was the manager. I told him I was getting my MacBook checked out, and the logic board was the problem.
He was like, "Wow, one month old MacBook with a busted Logic Board? That shouldn't happen. Come back tomorrow with the box and we'll just give you a new one"
WOOOO!!!!!!
I had to share, since I know you freaks are crazy about this stuff! I'm heading out now to go get my replacement!
Adios!
