Again on what planet?Guys Christmas returns period applies so he could return it and buy a new one.
Friend of mine dropped his MacBook Air during the return period.
He then damaged the packaging on purpose and called Apple for a new unit claiming shipping damage.
Not legal and wrong, but it actually worked out.

Dude, again, I echo others in congratulating you for manning up and just living with it. You're way too rational, ethical, and un-entitled to be on this forum. Karma is on your side friend. Besides, as I said way back on page 1 or 2, chicks dig the battle scars. IDGAF is the only way to roll.Unluckily, I don't have a credit card or insurance plan that covers this. Thanks for the tips though.
Anyway, it's been a day since it happened and to be honest I barely notice it any more. It's still a drop-dead gorgeous machine, now with a slightly dog-eared look that gives it extra charm![]()
Yes. They'll take it back.

From a height of about 3 feet. This is my third day using a specced out 15" that I've literally waited years to buy.
So I have a laptop backpack that has both a top and side zipper for quick removal. Was leaving a cafe with the Mac in my bag and forgot the side was unzipped. As I turned and stood up I heard a loudass metallic clatter behind me -- I thought I had knocked over a sign or something. Everyone in the cafe turned to stare -- I was genuinely confused until a waiter meekly told me "Sorry sir, I think you dropped your computer."
F%%%. The laptop had launched out of my backpack with quite some torque and landed hard on the right corner before coming to a rest upside down. I opened the lid... and yes, it turned on. There's now a nice fat bite out of the chassis and a few scuffs on the lid. The body seams near the impact have spread oh-so-sightly, and the location of impact has deformed a few mm meaning the lid no longer closes perfectly flush. But other than that everything seems fine. I swear this thing is like a slab of granite. Very well-built.
But honestly. I don't deserve nice things.
