Oh well, >It's better than 2 months Well I am suitably impressed and a little surprised at Apple's take on it. Maybe they are now beginning to see there is a fault in their design after all. Maybe it also depends upon where you are based and which number you call. After one month I did receive the TiBoo back ... although absolutely nothing had been done to it! Out it went again the next day and a month later back good as new! In between I also received another shipping box (empty!). And the day prior to it eventually returning I was on the verge of getting a new machine :-( -- Salutations The Modern Gent # Superior living with http://www.moderngent.com/ # RazorMate - FHM Magazine Grooming Awards Finalist
