On January 8th, 2008 I did a post called, Patience Is A Virtue Or Synchronicity Is At Work Here. I said that something great was going to come from my computer woes and it did.
As it turned out all I needed was some RAM for my laptop. Not a problem at all. However when I went I called Apple support I also wanted to register the extra Apple Care I bought with the laptop. I was tld they couldn’t do that because the laptop had been registered previously. I wasn’t surprised as I bought the demo or floor model and when it’s taken out of the box it had to be registered right away by the retailer, London Drugs.
What I didn’t know is that within 30 days of selling a demo model the retailer has to send Apple a particular form so that Apple Care can be registered. The form hadn’t been sent in by the retailer and when it was months later Apple didn’t accept it. The retailer and I went back forth trying to figure something out.
I received a phone call two days ago and London Drugs has given me a brand new laptop – box never opened. The Apple care was applied immediately to it and I have coverage until 2011.
Keep in mind that the model I bought was originally opened November 2006 and I purchased it May 2007. Nine months later I have a brand new model with more RAM, a hard drive that’s 20 gigs larger, a faster processor and has the new operating system.
I love The Universe and it loves me!
