What did Apple do to you? I've watched your continued implied slurs
such as above, all over whether or not Apple should warrent and repair
SOMEONE ELSES WORK. If you can find a computer company, auto company,
dishwasher company, record company, or any other form of company which
will warrent someone elses parts and labor, good luck.
Isn't it time you traded in your Mac on an IBM PC or something. They
won't warrent any non-IBM boards or mods to the machine. And in fact
if you take the machine in to them and they find out you had someone
else's boards plugged into it they will do their damndest to prove to
you that the other board did the damage and you have to pay the hourly
rate for repairs instead of the flat rate.
