I just got my PB Ti back from service due to flickering and graying monitor. The paperwork returned with the PB doesn't really explain what was done. Firstly, the paperwork says the failure was caused by my non-Apple brand 256mg memory chip, which they then removed and returned to me. They say that the machine failed to pass all the "Apple diagnostic and reliability tests" with the non-Apple memory installed. I bought the chip at the Chip Merchant in San Diego over 2 years ago and installed it myself, it always worked flawlessly. Is this just something that Apple does to any non-Apple product that has been installed or should I accept that the chip is bad?
They also say that an unnamed Apple product failed and was replaced free of charge. On the invoice it says the following product was replaced "675-0018 PBG4,ECN,CASCADING" Any idea of what this is exactly??
The machine works fine now and I'm satisfied with the repair, I'm just wondering exactly what they replaced and whether or not I should just re-install my memory chip.
Thanks in advance!
