What is Apple's policy on exchanging for a newer model during a refresh?

I know the return policy is 14 days, but what if it is past that limit?

Cross your fingers and ask nicely. They're not obligated to give you anything.

How many days has it been? My friend who just converted to Macs bought a new 15" MBP a little more than two weeks before they announced the 2011 model.

She went in about 19 days later saying she had just gotten an Apple email announcing the new ones. She didn't need to argue or cry, she just asked about them, mentioned the email. The manager overheard the conversation, walked up to the employee and said to give her a new one.

Granted, that was a huge jump from 2 to 4 cores.

Now she's an Apple fan for life

Tell your girlfriend to wear a real thin tight halter top and the shortest tightest shorts she can find, and find the manager and hope it is a man.
