Ok, I have had "several" repairs, the last ones were done a mere 2 months ago. I have heard that to get one replaced, that the owner would need to request a replacement, otherwise Apple may not replace it, just keep on fixing it.
Here is my history of repairs..
Dec 2008 -
new logicboard/GPU
Apr 2010
new keyboard
Dec 2010 -
new logicboard/gpu
top case
keyboard
battery
Matte display/clamshell
The last repairs cost (as per my invoices) over $1100. I don't have the repair invoice in front of me for the cost of the others.
Some of my problems still persist. I thought it was just safari (graphics "scramble", or look like black & white snow (old B&W tvs)), but it happens now in Aperture and photoshop...
Anyways, are my chances good that Apple will agree to replace my computer if I ask? How do I go about requesting a new one, just flat out and ask? I doubt Apple wants to dump another dime into an early 08' MBP, but I could be wrong..
I am going to make a genius appointment next week when I have time...
