Apple just replaced my 2009 MBP with a Mid 2012 MBP

[djarpit]

Had many hardware issues over 3 years of apple care

and one month after apple care expired and i get crappy performance slow read/write speeds and consistent crashes.

needless to say apple was nice enough to replace it for me.

im a happy camper 🙂

Paradoxically, sometimes Apple behaves strangely...

Just curious, what were your 2009 and current specs?

They did this for me too, Out of warranty mid? or late 2009, and the gave me a late 2011.

Congrats you guys!

My favourite experience thus far was Apple replacing my 2006 iMac's LCD after 4 years (in 2010) with no AppleCare ever attached 🙂

Wow, How did you do that?

My late 2007 Santa Rosa 17" MBP with 3 years AC died during the fourth year due to a well-known NVidia graphics issue, but they asked me to pay to replace the logic board! 😡

Just like any other service related experience in life, it all depends on who you get.
