I had an original first-gen MacBook that gave me hell. After 2 dead heard drives, a dead logic board, 2 dead optinal disks, a dead screen, 2 palm rest changed, and a full outer case change.. I got Apple to exchange it for a new one.
Now I'm the proud owner of a white 2.1Ghz MacBook. They didn't give me a new Alum MacBook, but what I got was extraordinary for what I had.
I just love the Apple style.
