NO, of course not, but did it ever affect performance? nope! It's purely
cosmetic and Apple fixes it for free.

Okay, that seems like a reasonable answer. Apple fixed it, so why the
complaining?

It took awhile to find the cause, I think you have the understanding
that millions of users under 1000's of conditions all have the same
answer? Learn about electronics repair, it's 1000's of times more
complex than a "car" with a squeaky sound.
Ah, the fan wouldn't ware out for 5-10 years, so not sure why you
brought that up. Sounds AGAIN like you don't know electronics.
Yes, Apple should have offered a full 2 year extra AppleCare plan, they
failed there.

The fix ended up being "software" which is typical for complex systems.
The general public (you) doesn't have have the concept that most EVERY
HARDWARE issue can be fixed with asoftware update.

No, I followed the story very well, that's why I've caught you in a lie.
I did have a person with the dark palm rests, he emailed me, and apple
fixed it within 4 days, for free.

I know about all cases, and your story quickly calculated to false.

Yes, but if you would have called Customer Relations, they know 3
strikes by Apple and the machine is replaced or amount refunded. Which
you got since you didn't understand the issues.

But not an Apple Store, thanks for confirming that.

Untrue. Unless of course you are abusive to your equipment. The sign
that you had dirty palm rests pretty much says you are a PIG, and not
really up to Apple standards to have a modern piece of electronic
equipment. (sorry to be so blunt on that, but the dirty palm rest, told
everyone that you aren't a clean person)

Not.

Apple doesn't need to respond to class action unless there is a problem
on their side, in your case it was user abuse.
> Were they fixed ? Don't know or care. I got a refund and that's that.
Yes, and in your filthy lifestyle that was best for Apple. They don't
need slobs in their customer base.

Incorrect. Apple helped you, but you didn't want to be helped. It's VERY
clear from your comments here.

But Apple mistakenly didn't understand that WASN'T the problem, it was a
software issue, fixed after you had issues. Sorry.

Nope, it just means you aren't civilized enough to open a modern
computing device. Someday, with some training you might join the Apple
fold, but until then, you are human trash, it's pretty clear by your
error filled postings.
