It's > hard for me to believe that only the "cover" costs 1200$ Knowing Apple, what's hard for me to believe is that Apple only charges $1200. For instance my sister has the top end iBook, and there is a known issue with flakey RJ45 ports coming loose posted all over the 'net. She has 3 Year Applecare, she's had the iBook 1 year. They told her it was hardware damage, not covered by warranty, and charged her $700-for a new Ethernet Port. Now THAT is Piracy on the high seas if you ask me. That is consumer terrorism.
