when you took it in, it had been more than four years since your 2007 machine was originally sold, that's why you got the response you did.
Actually it was within the time frame, it felt like it was just last month, when it was like several months ago. 😀
Just dragged the 15" recently out to see to use it for testing *cough* and low and behold it's worthless now. 😟
The problem I have is I told them at the Genius Bar the video was going, but couldn't prove it as it was very rare it occured.
But they ran their little tests and gave me a load of crap, now it's dead. $2500 down the toilet.
I know what did it, Lion. Lion was the cause, it ran like a fine machine under Snow, fscking Lion, I'm glad I didn't put that POS on my new 17"

My word the OP, don't let the Genius Bar screw you with the same crap they gave me, call corporate and raise ****!
