Posted by joy

FAQ found here. And yup, my PowerBook has had a white spot ever since I got it, and today with a darkened desktop I noticed that there are a few more developing white spots.

My 1GHZ is covered by the program, but I dread sending it to Apple for repairs.

I know how you feel, but I had to send an iMac in for a hard drive repair a couple of years back, and it was relatively painless. They fixed the problem quickly at a regional service center (IIRC), and sent it back within a couple of weeks.

Now, if they’d only fix a PB that’s got a cracked lid from accidentally dropping on the pavement. :-)

Also, there’s a site: PBFixit.com, that sells displays, etc. for powerbooks, and even has instruction manuals on how to install parts if you decide to go that route.

Oh no! I have recently noticed that I have two small ones on my iBook. Good thing for applecare. I’ll have to read up more on the issue…

Apple has good service. I just got my iBook back in four days including shipping it both ways and getting a logic board change.
