[Admin - please reply privately, ot to the LUG - OT group.] I just bought a G4 Powerbook - installed and transferred all my software to it then within days it died on me. It was classed as a DOA. The company I bought it from and Apple has agreed it is a DOA the problem it takes up to 4 days to give me a replacement cause of all the red tape. I find this bizarre. I have applecare cover too. Is there some other cover that people are using to ensure that you are not without a machine for such a length of time ?
