G4 Conundrum
Beej! That's hilarious... 😀
Hellspawn, I'm sure you could email the nearby Apple Store/Retailer to start the ball rolling.
As an alternative to beej's excuse, you could say sulferic acid from a leaky car battery in the overhead garage you live under seeped through your rickety roof and dripped onto your Brand New G4 case, and you're terribly sorry to be such a bother, but you were just wondering if your local Apple Retailer could be dears and order you a new case...
The only other thing I can think of is try to walk around your city and see who has G4's... wait till they fall asleep and sneak in and borrow the G4. Take it home with you, strip the case off it, replace it with a cheap PC case but be sure - and this is the most important part - be sure to take a big black marker pen and draw a big apple on the side. Sneak back over to the place you borrowed the G4 from, and carefully put the resheathed G4 back exactly where you borrowed it from...
Presto, you've got a G4 case, and no one's the wiser... 😀
Does anybody else have any creative excuses to tell the local Apple Dealer to get a replacement G4 case?
