- Mine has not smoked but mine kept switching off. I heard of this problem from 4
- or 5 users now. Apparently, there's a faulty cap in power supply. Apple had a
- silent recall out on it. Supposedly it expired in september or so, but I got
- mine fixed (FREE) in november....call!
-
- PS Many dealers do NOT know about this! 3 in Boston claimed I was wrong, and
- would have to pay about $150 for parts and labor. 1 said he wouldnt even
- guarantee the work --- that I'd have to pay more for it to actually be
- analyzed and tested -- the $150 was just for going with my
- assumption...Moral:Careful!
