I drive a lot so going from a standard tranny to automatic about 8 years ago helped too _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Now my site needs a banner

HelloMac n00b Registered: 03/18/10 Posts: 5	Thanks for the feedback everyone. I did purchase AppleCare when I bought the iMac but it didn't click with me that this would be a covered item. I've found AppleCare to be mostly useless anytime I've attempted to use them for support, but I shall call today. If it's not covered then an external unit will be the way to go. Thanks again. Dave

Jim_ aka Reboot Registered: 04/21/02 Posts: 10098 Loc: Columbus OH	As long as it's less than 3 years old Apple Care will cover it. Then when you get it fixed if you use it a lot get an external to save the internal if you plan on keeping the iMac for a while. Good Luck!! And welcome to the forums. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Now my site needs a banner
