MacBook ProRemember I told you that Apple fixed my old MacBook Pro? Well, I lied - they just replaced all the guts, but that didn't fix it. Instead, the computer overheated quicker and shut down more often.

So, when we called to complain, Apple offered to replace it with a new MacBook Pro. Yea, not an old model, but the new model, the one I just purchased a couple months ago.

This Sunday, my brother went to the Apple Store, sat down at the Genius bar and an hour later, walked out with the low model of the MacBook Pro. That is the $1,999.00 model, the 2.4GhZ. I have a 2.8 GhZ, cause I upgraded the middle model to a more powerful beast.

But still, my old laptop had Apple Care for like $350. It got us a brand new one, 2.X years later. Not only that, they threw in a $25 iTunes gift card - cause it took so long at the Apple Store. Not a bad deal!
