warranties
Hi! I have been offered a new and unused Titanium powerbook which the seller says he recently obtained from an Apple employee at Cupertino. But there is no proof of purchase with the machine. Without proof of purchase would I have no warranty, if there is a major failure of some sort in the first year? I thought one could tell the age from the serial number. Would that be sufficient for a warranty? Does anyone know the answers? Mike -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: warranties
Mike, If the Titanium is a model that has been updated more than 1 year ago in Apple's product line, do yourself a favor and save a lot of steps by contacting Apple with the serial number and tell them you would like to register it. A co-worker bought an iBook (300mHz) from Sears on closeout new in the box in 2001 and didn't register it until a few months after purchase. A key popped off and the speaker acted up. He called to get warranty work performed and a proof of purchase was required even after he had registered it online because the product was well beyond the date of discontinuation. My Dad bought a G4 iMac in April 2003 that had been repackaged with updated software through Apple and sold new by Micro Center. Apple Care was purchased at the same time, and when we registered Apple Care over the phone, proof of purchase was required because of the age of the machine. In both cases the proof of purchase was required to validate the full warranty. Check that first, then worry if it is stolen. Shawn On Friday, July 18, 2003, at 04:40 AM, Michel Treisman wrote: Hi! I have been offered a new and unused Titanium powerbook which the seller says he recently obtained from an Apple employee at Cupertino. But there is no proof of purchase with the machine. Without proof of purchase would I have no warranty, if there is a major failure of some sort in the first year? I thought one could tell the age from the serial number. Would that be sufficient for a warranty? Does anyone know the answers? Mike -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
