Yup, any authorized Apple service provider.

Thanks for the reply. So i can just drop it off there for my screen uneven dimming problem, and they can mail it back to my office? Or will I have to make a 1hr trip to the store to pick it up?

Thanks again

Have you checked Apple's Service Locator site to see if there might be another authorized service provider closer to you than the Apple store?

Otherwise, my guess is you'll have to make two trips. It probably depends on the store's policy.

FYI most laptop service these days is done by sending the unit straight to Apple where they repair it. Unless its out of warrantee.

Used to work in an Apple Service center.

Have to agree there. They box it up and ship it off. To Texas, I believe. It does save you the problem of asking for a pick-up box and shipping it out yourself though. And the good thing is that they will mail it back to you, not the Apple Store.

ah i was hoping the local center could order in the screen, and install it for me locally. I was told that they do in house repairs. Ill find out soon enough,

Or just have Apple pick it up from, and return it to, your office.

What Apple does is ship you an empty box via Airborne, which you put the PowerBook in, and then Airborne picks up the box and ships it to Apple. Then they fix it and send it back... door-to-door service, it rocks.

The thing is, there are some repairs Apple won't allow their service providers to do -- for those repairs, they just end up sending it in via Airborne just as you would have.
