Merry Christmas and Happy Extended Warranty Service.


I learned recently that laptop failure is so common that the
manufacturers have outsourced warranty repair to UPS (or maybe it was
FedEx.) A room inside the facility has 100 techs swapping out
motherboards and such all day long, then returning the thing to the
customer the next day.
