The effed up brand new macbook that we left at the apple store on Sunday just came in. Pretty damned good turn around time was great. Now to get it to the kid, 2 hrs away.
Meaning they sent me a new one instead of fixing the old one?Lol they didn't drop ship?

Ah, nope, had to be signed for (fedex) and they would not ship to his po box at school.No as in ship the fixed one directly to your kid.
Lol he could have gone to fedex office to sign for it.Ah, nope, had to be signed for (fedex) and they would not ship to his po box at school.

Not very flexible thinking on Apple peon's part.

After leaving the store, I got a bit miffed. The sales guy said that because it was under warranty and apple care that he waived the $100 service charge....Thanks a bunch, Apple.
Guess best buy isn't being totally honest then.Yes be grateful they were willing to fix it under warranty. And no they don't want third party to be allowed to fix them.

I figured they said no was because it was still under warranty.
Get in my car last night after work and boom, doesn't start. It was close but just didn't turn over. So I had to call my brother to come and jump me, which we did with no problem. However he suggested I get a new battery (about a month ago he had to jump me too, due to a interior light left on overnight). I figured it was a good idea so I went and got one installed from O'Reilly's.
I did not expect this, but man my car sure seems to run "smoother," especially at very low speeds, like slowly going through a parking lot. I did a search and it seems batteries can affect how your car runs so maybe it's not just placeabo. Anyway I'm happy now. Between that and my new tires, hopefully my car should be set until I get a new one in a year or two.
