You could have Apple take a look at it. I think you get a 90-day full warranty/1 year limited warranty, assuming you didn't buy AppleCare. :)

Yes, most probably after they remove the data (they'll probably do a data backup assuming the hard drive isn't dead.)

Um, if you take it to the Genius Bar, who knows. This is my first apple.

Yes, most likely.

Every Mac includes 90 days of phone support and a 1 year of free parts & labor.

Possibly. It is always best to perform a complete backup before sending your computer away. If you take it to a Genius Bar, for a $10 fee, they will backup your data for you.

It depends on the problems and if you take it to a Genius Bar, or send it in. I would expect at least a week (maybe 2).

Chances are no.
