While I am not a MAC lover, I find the above hard to believe.  I have
also
dealt with dealers like MacZone.  I have been told to contact the
manufacturer, because it warrants the equipment.  The manufacturer (HP)
sent
out a repair man (from IBM, but that's another story) who fixed it on
the
spot.

Bottom line is, does this mean that Apple does not give a warranty with
their IMacs??
