was the lappy actually DOA? or just a bad battery cover? i mean, either is lame - but if it was working properly, aside from the cover - then all your stuff would be restored via time-shyte-capsule... ya?

btw: i dealt w/a "level 2" manager - who was a bit of a gruff guy. he acted as if he was doing me a favor by sending me out a replacement... what an ass. i re-ordered on 11/04/08 and fedex shows that it shipped this morning - left fedex 11:28am from SHANGHAI CN, 11/07/08. we will see.

no free iworks for me, hahahaha.

good luck with yours!!!

all it really was was the loose battery cover, but apple declared it DOA since it was like that when i received it. mine replacement hasn't shipped yet, i'm hoping it will soon as i start classes next thursday :(
